Press Release Summary: MG-450HD Entertainment Server Brings the Cosmic World of Multimedia to the Living Room
Press Release Body: Baldwin Park, Calif., April 22, 2008 - MediaGate, a provider of wireless HDTV and PC digital video drives, has just announced the release of the latest media server to join their product line, the MG-450HD, wirelessly bridging the gap between digital content and television. The MG-450HD entertainment server lets consumers wirelessly stream high-definition video, music, and photos directly to an HDTV or stereo system from the PC, all for the attractive retail price of $229.
With MediaGate's MG-450HD, users can easily surf for content from multiple sources-including PCs on the home WLAN or attached USB devices like a digital camera or USB flash drive. Easy to setup and use, the MG-450HD operates on 802.11g wireless networks, and supports HDMI for high definition output, composite, S-video, and component video outputs, in addition to stereo L/R, optical/coaxial digital audio, and analog 5.1 channels.
For maximum flexibility, users can add the hard drive of their choice, letting them customize their media center for their storage needs - whether it's 80 or 750 GB. The MG-450HD can also act as a Digital Media Adapter (DMA) and stream multimedia content from a PC to HDTV without any hard drive.
"Due to the wide popularity of sites like YouTube, BitTorrent, and Guba we are thrilled to announce the release of the MG-450HD. Consumers are turning to the Web for entertainment more so now than ever, catching up on favorite shows, to watching the week's most popular videos, and downloading high-definition movies," said Jason Chen, President of Sales and Marketing of MediaGate. "Although the growth of online video has altered personal entertainment, most people are limited to watching content on a 14" laptop display, even at home where their HDTV sits idly by. The MG-450HD breaks this cycle, by providing easy and affordable access to digital downloaded content anywhere in the home theater."
Also available from MediaGate is the MG-45 and the MG-250HD.
