Hi Guys,

I'm hesitating about what to get as a HTPC in order to read 1080p and sometimes 3D content:

1- Lenvo idea center q180
2- Xtreamer ultra 2 Deluxe
3- ATV 3 once it will be jailbreakable

I know that Xtreamers have bad reputation but the new Xtreamer ultra 2 looks nice for the price... I prefer the design of the lenovo but I will have to find remote, change HD etc...

Otherwise I'm thinking to wait for the Apple TV 3 to be jailbreakable but I'm sceptical about it. Are they powerful enough to run XBMC properly and stream monies from a NAS while accessing to internet?

Thanks

I had a JB Apple TV 2 and sold it.
Better support for PC/HTPC

I got a Q180 and it does silverlight , flash and HD content fine (2gb Win7)

Its more noisy than ATV but its not to bad imo.

Get one of these instead of remote??

The play buttons/arrows/enter/esc etc all work as should in XBMC

I can do a Vid if you want?
