TechSpot's Staff Holiday Picks @ TTG, Part Deux

I could use one of those Slingbox devices at home, but it's still too expensive. If it were more affordable, I'd grab one right away. I need something to steam my DVR's HD signal from my living room to my bedroom TV. Anyone knows of a cheaper alternative?

Just biding my time for SSDs to go more mainstream. They would be an amazing help when flying through giant RAW files like i do for photo editing.

I really want a solid state drive. I'm just not sure if PCI-E versions are better than internals. For that matter, do they even make SSDs for laptops yet?

I agree that the Slingbox is way expensive...however if you are a road warrior out on business with your notebook, the product is extremely useful. I'm surprised that the price hasn't come down given the popularity of the product though.
