[mythtv-users] D-Link DSM-510 for $80 - cheap frontend?

[dvjunk at netscape.net]

I just saw that Circuit City has the D-Link DSM-510 HD media player for $80.

Free shipping or free in store pickup.

It sounds like this *might* work as a MythTV frontend. I have seen limited postings on using this with Myth, but for $80 it seems like it's worth a try for a HD frontend. (Especially with the amount of work it seems to be getting a cheap Myth frontend working reliably.)

Some links to using this with Myth:

Any thoughts, suggestions, links, pointers would be greatly appreciated.
I plan to pick one up at the local CC tonight and give it a try. If it doesn't work out I can always return it!
