Hmm, we may have to go back and mark things up a bit

Since the Echo includes CEC I wouldn't think twice about it. I'd love nothing more than to throw out every infared remote control I own. I just like leveraging the IP network in the house for as much as I can. I love my little Revo's but if they had CEC I would love them that much more.

I believe there's a UTC+13 Timezone - I'm surprised you guys didn't resort to that argument

If they made a client app for PC's (in addition to phones and tablets) that was remote-control friendly, and it included the ability to watch copy-protected content in full-screen (ie. SoftSled), I'd be willing to pay more for it too.

It's already tomorrow... on the east coast, anyway. I still don't see it on the Google Play store. You guys on the west coast need to get out of bed earlier.

Any updates for using the Ceton Companion Server on Windows 8? Earlier references in this thread refer to a Windows 8 app, not the Server. Unless I am mistaken there is an issue with the .NET implementation in Windows 8. Any idea as to whether the Ceton Companion will be working with Windows 8 by the official Win 8 launch? I was part of the Android beta but upgraded to Windows 8 shortly after the beta started so was unable to participate after I upgraded. Now I am trying to decided what to do going forward. I like Windows 8 on my HTPC quite a lot (yeah, yeah call me crazy, but I do like it), but there are quite a few MC add-ons that just won't work. I will probably stick with Win 8 if it is likely that Ceton Companion will be working by the official launch. If it is unlikely to be working in October I may switch back to Windows 7 until (If) the issues are resolved. Any insight is appreciated.

I have a little interest in that aside from needing to watch copy protected content. That could change of course since the 1geek guys won't be updating the DVBLink client for the HDPVR.

I know they act like we need to wait until they are in tomorrow before releasing it.
