popcorn hour c-200

[admin_exported]

why does the popcorn hour c-200 cost so much over here it is listed on their main site as $299 and with the exchange rate that shoud be £195 over here so why are they charging £275-£300 for it not amused.

If i buy it from their main site will it work over here?

errr, transport costs, various taxes, distributor costs, allowing for warranty returns...?

i assume it's a u.s. product, so won't work here unless it has switchable voltage between 120v(?) and 240v.

just had a look at it, interesting product. looks like it will work on our mains voltage.

if you buy direct, bear in mind delivery costs and import duty. maybe vat as well.

yea i kinda thought that but it me off just cuz were the UK and everythink we buy is way more expencive than every where else.

i like the product as it supports all formats and you don't need a PC in the middle to stream all your media i thought the xbox 360 would do it but other than pics and music it don't stream riped movies direct of the nas pitty really microsoft let them selfs down their.

Why didn't your xbox stream movies from you NAS? it should stream any dvd copy or Divx but it won't do mkv
