Sony Dream Machine unboxing

I saw this guy a few months back on Engadget and have been waiting for it to ship/

Shocker, I walked right into the opening of the new @eatontownbb and plucked one off the shelf. Didn't get to open it until today. Took a few pix of the unboxing

So far it seems nice as a concept, and in action its mostly pretty sweet. The LCD is amazing for the cheap $150 price, but the plastic feels like a $150 item, it's not too sturdy. The interface to get it to play along with video is a little wonky too, it doesn't automatically come up, ya gotta dig into the menus a bit. Either that or I havent found the right option to get it to do that yet.

Will keep playing with it but so far it seems like a keeper!

Pete was one of my students at MU, a really cool guy and a hell of a special effects artist, creature creator and zombie mastermind. If you are doing any kind of film, movie or video in NY/NJ area that needs technical wizardry, give him a shout at PeterSathmary.Com
