Watch out for the Sage Chipset

216.67.9.10

The Skyworht 1050p (a $300 player from HK) uses the Sage chipset, supposedly better performance than most HTPC's.
Yes, there are kinks towork out, but the advancement of scaling technology is so quick that I would bet that just like a office PC today is a POS in 18 months, so too is a HTPC scaler compared to what is becoming available in budget level components.

The big advantage of scaling is with high reosltuion displays, wher the scaler can feed a native XGA signal to the projector or display, rather than just 480p
