I have one and I was trying to figure out why it wasn't mentioned along side the 3 others. Don't get me wrong, I'm really excited to see what Popbox and the new boxee have to offer, but so far the WD TV Live is really impressive for media streaming. For such a tiny little box it handles every high def x264 I throw at it as well as tons of other formats. Streaming is super fast and there is virtually no delay even when playing, fast forwarding, rewinding huge 1080p movies over my network. The only thing they're missing is a nice interface like the popbox seems it will have when it comes out. WD TV Live definitely deserves to be a contender though.

I just don't get why Google doesn't just buy out palm and turn WebOS (currently only on the Palm Pre) into a desktop OS. We all expect WebOS to eventually be ported over to netbooks and other devices, and truthfully it seems way more polished than android or any other mobile OS out there. It basically already has the capability to do everything google is looking to accomplish with this new Chrome OS.

I agree that well educated teachers are extremely important for educating children, but your view of a bachelor's degree obviously stems from some sort of liberals arts degree at a crappy institution. If you've ever taken engineering/science/math courses at a reputable top 10-20 school then you'd have a lot more respect for what it takes to finish a bachelor degree. Receiving a masters degree in many science/math majors will do very little for a teacher in a 7th grade science class.
