you'll love the harmony......

Nice one Arj. I'm waiting for the RF version of the Harmony One. If still not out by end of the year, I might just buy Harmony 890 instead (RF version of 880).

I want RF so my wife can control Astro from the bedroom.

cool stuff!

i'm 1 of the ppl

hey.. can u control astro from another room with a RF remote control? that sounds like a great solution for my new condo as I only have one decoder in the living room.....

This will replace the IR transceiver (that is taped to front of astro) ... old fashion style. any other possible solutions?

cheers..

Warner to Ship More than 1M Dark Knight Blu-rays

According to sources, Warner Home Video will ship more than 1 Million copies of the upcoming Blu-ray release of 'The Dark Knight' to retailers, which represents the largest initial shipment of any Blu-ray title, ever. There has been a great deal of anticipation for the title, which is on schedule to be released on December 9th, and Warner appears to be share the same sentiments.

The current best selling title is Paramount's 'Iron Man', which sold around a half million copies its first week. Data regarding total sales so far and number of units shipped have yet to be revealed by the studio.

Btw,How much is the Harmony 1?Might be getting it soon..

morning guys!!

okay quick review on Get Smart BD:


PQ: 4/5

Consistent brightness, colors throughout the movie, although there's not one scene where colors pop out or seem vibrant. it all seems balanced, and clean, crisp. There are certain scenes however, which seem to be slightly washed out for a few seconds. overall, nice looking BD!

AQ: 2/5

Ugh..a bloody disaster. Following Speed Racer, this title is in Dolby Digital and no HD audio!!! WTF WB?? The explosions, soundtrack, gunshots are all nice in surround, but the dialogue is disappointing. Muffled, a bit low..i had to crank the amp a few notches to get a balance. Basically same thing which happened to Speed Racer. Disappointing.

Movie: 4/5

This is the first time I watched Get Smart, and I must say it's pretty good. It takes cues from the TV show in its mannerisms and feel but on the other hand, it has a modernized take on it. However, I must still say it almost went into a generic modern spy-spoof movie, but luckily it managed to stay at its borders. The storyline is surprisingly good, although not great. If you watch this with no - low expectations, it may very well surprise you. Acting is ok at the very least; Carrell with his same shtick as the stone faced idiot who thinks he knows it all, but luckily he doesn't take his Office character into this role. He still manages to balance out the blissfully unaware idiot with some charm and brilliance in being an analyst. Bottom line, he's still funny and charming. Anne Hathaway was ok to me, although i must admit I was blinded by her huge eyes, lips, teeth and chest.

Extras:

The Get Smart BD comes with a digital copy and a DVD Game a la Speed Racer.

I got the 880 for a very reasonable price. It's a refurbished unit from amazon, $70 only

$184.25

Received my Journey To The Center Of The Earth today,

The cover is in 3D something like the hulk.

Will test the 3D glass later.

Just came back from watching Quantum of Solace...thumbs up for me..i could care less about those who don't like it..but this one is definitely a keeper..will be looking forward for the BD :-)
