Sacrifice a little space for UI from heaven is easy.

This person sure wouldn't. I'll sacrifice a some UI for a good deal of space. The current difference between a $200 NMT and a cheap big setup or a pricy small setup is a big gap, so "a little space" is not the correct descriptor. As soon as something reasonably small and reasonably cheap for XBMC is available, I'm all over it. I think a good UI is huge, but so is real estate and appearance/noise.

Quote:Last, current NMTs all have external PSU even the HDX1000.

So? The PSU is fanless, small footprint, etc. What would be the complaint? I'd prefer something internal, but it is so far down the list of wants (much less the needs), that it doesn't even enter my equation. Whatever I get will plug into the wall, and a little plastic box along the cord doesn't bother me, 20-60 times the physical volume and noise does.
