I wonder if it will still offer WMC extender capabilities... if so this may be an intriguing way to continue to add extenders on the cheap! :D

Yeah but all their Live stuff now (not talking extender fucntion) requires a subscription - so while the box may be cheap and do Live functions only - they might still charge you a monthly fee to use it. I'd wait on more concrete details before we all start speculating this though *too late*

Yea I was kind of wondering what was going to get cut or what barriers may arrive to get at a $99 price point. Either way speculating is fun, now if I can pair these with some InfiniTV 6's that would be awesome :lol:

But if it's Live only services - the extender function might not even be included cause it's not a Live function :X I obviously hope that isn't the case.
