Today we are going to take a look at a device that's all about graphics cards yet .. different. How many of you have linked the TV Output of your graphics cards towards the television. Recent polls showed that a lot of you have it or is at the least interested in it. Another poll showed the disadvantage of the SVideo cable. Everyone wants to watch DVD through the computer on the television yet thanks to the SVideo cable the PC has to be in a range very close to the TV. If an SVideo cable is longer than let's say 2 meters you'll start to notice signal degradation.

Also, what about movies DVD/DiVX from the PC on other TV's ?, Look at photo's, look at live content broadcasted over the internet This is exactly where the Palmbutler comes in. No more signal degradation and media playback on all your tv's with very good quality.

Digital movies and photo on your TV
With Palmbutler, it is possible to get your PC's digital media on all your TVs and stereos at home, i.e. you can watch movies from the internet or DVD-drive on your TV, or show your digital photo archive on the TV-screen.

MP3-music on the stereo
Listen to your MP3 collection on the stereo with Palmbutler. With a fast internet connection, it is also possible to listen to internet radio or watch music videos from the internet on the TV.

The Palmbutler will allow you to play back all your MP3 files on your Radio as a station and view your movies over the antenna cable on any TV in your house. The Palmbutler 'merges' your graphics card signal and sound into the CAI signal and will broadcast the signal towards your TV or Radio. What an awesome invention. It doesn't stop there though you control and select your songs, movies or whatever media file you need to playback through a manu on your TV. That menu is controlled in a very easy way through a remote control. Not the infra-red kind remote, no a wireless one. That means the remote will send and receive signals through walls. You'll be able to select movies or MP3 from your bed if you want to.

The PalmButler is friggin amazing ..  let's start up this review shall we ?
