    Looks pretty simple to me. A box that plugs into your TV, but requires no connection to the computer. Plug it in once and that part is done, ignore it from then on. A USB device that plugs into the computer. And a remote control so you don't need the computer in the room with the TV at all. Everything comes with a remote control these days, even car stereos (which I don't understand - isn't it within reach? but whatever).

    Admittedly it would be simpler if you use WiFi and ditch the USB device so you only have two devices. Of course, with this little info, it might be able to do that.

    Still, if all it will stream is the video you recorded with the Flip, definitely it is a waste and will die. To be useful it should play anything on your computer. #ciscoflipsharettv

    Just for good measure, because I posted in the gallery and not here...

    NO!

    This is retarded! A single box that you plug a flip into would have worked fine, or better yet just a peice of software that people can access via a roku, or XBMC (boxee, plex).

    This is just another device that will end up on woot for $9.99 and end up in a landfill.

    so, the fact that noticed that the snake was on a token ring rack is because I'm an old fart who used to work on same (and arcnet...cough). The fact that dingus noticed it means he's in the same boat as G-Ram.

    @avconsumer2: The first job I had where I got a PC used token ring. It was awful. Whenever a node went down the whole network on the other side of that node went down too. It also took FOREVER to log in. I was so glad that my main computer was running Unix.

    If you think about this metaphor for about half a second, your brain explodes.

    Here we are in the cradle of creation, the garden of Eden, which is a cisco server room. Here the first man and woman, and Satan, who has taken the form of the snake, cavort and frolic until they are tempted by the forbidden fruit (also provided), at which point, they will become aware of their nakedness, and original sin, and to know pain and suffering and jealousy and all other human vices and weaknesses, and be cast out into the harsh real world where... erm... they're no longer locked in a server room? *kersplat*

    @ludwigk:
    Here we are in the cradle of creation, innocent and ignorant of good and evil. Without this knowledge we are like children. Satan, who has taken the form of a snake tempts man and offers him the knowledge of good and evil.

    Able to choose for himself man frees himself from the shackles imposed on him and escapes the garden prison. Free to learn and choose. Free to discover and explore. Man gains free will and he builds an empire. Perhaps some day he shall also become immortal and transcend free of his biological body to reach out across the universe.

    The rack with the snake is full of token ring concentrators. With their famous hermaphroditic connectors. What's that supposed to mean?

    And this connects to their product how?

    There isn't even a single shot of a switch or a router, nothing, just patch panels and a bunch of cables.
