Random freezing all over, not just on XBMC
But yesterday i've updated to the latest official firmware and since then it looks much more stable and no more freezing (so far).

Confluence is super-smooth, Ace and Aeon are smooth enough (about 22fps) even with fanart activated and everything.
Xvid playback sometimes could drop a frame but it's acceptable.
H264 is very smooth, both from USB and SMB shares.
I can't tell you about Netflix since my area is not covered, but i've tried other HD streaming (youtube, documentary.net, vimeo) and it worked like a charm.


What I don't like:
- remote (you can see pictures online, it's pretty useless)
- the wifi is really weak, i can do much much much better with my galaxy in same room


If you need wifi go with ATV1200, instead if you have ethernet this unit is really cool Cool
