"Save Your Money or Wait for Future Firmware"
Pros: Excellent video quality - upconverts low bitrate files impressively; USB and network storage support, High Def DivX support to 1080i
Cons: Poor navigation, horrible internet support, long startup time, poor wireless functionality

Cons: Too many minor issues that will have be resolved with the pending firmware upgrade
Summary: I purchased the Buffalo Link Theater along with Buffalo Link Station. The Link Station was added to my network with no problems and was easily accessible by both my wired and wireless devices. However, the installation of the Link Theater was an ent... read more >>

Pros: Unit looks to be well built, and looks nice. Display looks awesome, easy to use.
Cons: No WPA support, will not share my Samba linux share for some reason.
Summary: I recently decided to catch my home entertainment system up to date. Like one of the other viewers this is my first night, but since there are only a few reviews, I thought I would toss mine in.
Initial setup was easy, I consider myself prett... read more >>
