DVD drive, Access to internet services, Decent image quality
Limited selection of tools, Basic menu, Quite bulky
Other than the Xbox, which is really designed as a games machine, this is the only streamer to include a DVD drive. The drive is locked to region 2, but its an interesting addition and the Linksys Kiss 1600 upscales your DVDs to 720p and 1080i. Image ...
Abstract: The KiSS 1600 media player made by Linksys is more than a simple playback device for DVDs, MP3 files, and audio CDs. Its price makes it especially attractive, as you’re getting quite a lot for £200 / €300, including support for WMV, DivX, H.26...
