Pinnacle Showcentre 200

Has anyone here used or got one of these? I'm looking for something that will play mp3s, avi and divx files without going down the route of Media Centre. Any help appreciated.

I have a pinnicale, a mate has even rewritten the software backend to run with apache and MySQL - www.swisscenter.co.uk

You will need a back end PC to perform the streaming and transcoding that the creative software does.

What is the play quality like? Don't really wanna buy it if it does not stream over the wireless net fast enough. My pc is upstairs and the showcentre would be in the room below me. Would my wireless signal be strong enough to play movies and audio without any stuttering?

Is the swisscenter software better than the software bundled with the kit?
