US pricing for M6500a is abt USD499.....

This TVix is manufacturing from china....so...shorter distance for Malaysia...especially when they give promo....
keee....may be the price was just the Tvix 7000a only when they reply even I ask for all....but still cheaper than your unit 6500... tongue.gif
During the fair, .....they are offering the 6500 with hardisk and tunner for $1.6K...nvm...

Well, many times, when you see the price oversea webpages...the price is sky high....good example is the Onkyo AVR recent sales.....As long as you have source.....why don't.....

Here suppose to discuss which one you will buy....when the price is right , their service is reliable etc....

Please vote for your choice...Many thanks.....

gold plate dunno do wat for me

for me, get 2 units is the best

1) DVT tuner...actually can get separate set....kah???
2) If don't have the VFS display...yaluh...make live a bit difficult only...everytime...on TV la
3) Gold plate connector....last longer quality audio video ....I always buy thing hope to last foverever...keeee
4) Card reader...aiya...not so important la...transfer to computer and use USB thumbdrive sudah solve the problem...but since have..why don't...keeeeee

What is the Networked Media Tank (NMT) ?
The NMT is a product developed by Syabas Technology that combines Digital Media Adaptor (DMA), NAS, Media Server and Torrent downloader in a single lower cost device. Some versions will include DVD and BluRay playback capability.

Why do I need an NMT?
There are several reasons why you need an NMT. If you have a large media collection and would like to view it on your plasma/projector/home theater system. This is one of the most cost-effective ways to avoid investing in a HTPC. You can stream music, pictures and most importantly videos. The NMT supports H.264 video which is a compliant 1080p HiDef codec used by Bluray and HD-DVD. The second generation of NMT players with HDMIv1.3 support HD audio codec passthrough.

What are the supported file system for NMT?
File system read supported: EXT2/3, NTFS, FAT16/32, HFS+
File system write supported: EXT2/3, FAT16/32. NTFS write (not supported and low priority in to do list)

What type of network sharing does the NMT built-in NAS support?
SMB, FTP, NFS

(The above info will update at the post #1 of this thread)

I manage contact a sale person from HDX.
He told me USD219 is fix. The only thing can save is combine shipping. They using TNT service. If single unit order, cost is USD50 ship to Malaysia  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Those MO from singapore forum are basically collect like 30 units and share the shipping cost.

He suggest me to gather an interest list who want to buy. Then if get enough volume then can proceed with order. Minimum MOQ is 20 units  sweat.gif

So who is interested to get HDX-1000 ???  hmm.gif

Any tax?

Who want to do the bulk order starter here?

I was considering HDX100 but many buyers have problems with the machine. Nice design but QC is lack I think.

I am initially considering this...but last..HTPC is better investment....

What system you already build and how much...?

Haven't have time to survey ....Any best place to do the survey rather than lowyat....? I prefer to go to Digital mall...I don't like to go KL...except...really need it...for survey...don't like to go down KL...keeeeeee
