At £100 more, and no hard drive, why should I get this rather than the Apple TV?
I suppose it depends on what you need it to do. Although now the AppleTV has XBMC / Boxee it’s hard to argue against it (I use one myself).

This looks like another variant of the networked media tank systems, see the Popcorn Hour. Powerful as hell, plays nearly anything you can throw at it, not terribly sexy user interface. Geekware still, but when set up becomes the swiss army knife of media players.
I’m not knocking Apple TV, it’s got a lovely interface, and is starting to be a little more device friendly, but it’s very intolerant of various kinds of media. I do admit I’ve not tried Boxee ( sold my Apple TV some weeks ago), so best of all wishes to the developers of Boxee.
I have had the X38HD for almost a week now and I must say that I am impressed. However, I encounter two problems with the device.
The first one is that there is no audio with WMV files; its just like you put a DTS cd in a non-dts receiver. The 2nd thing is that I cannot reach the FTP server. I configured the device properly (as normal with ftp servers) but from my pc I contineously recieve an access denied. I isntalled the latest firmware, (xxx125), so I hope the bugs will be fixed soon.
Hi Ton, have you tryed if the X38HD is able to use shuffle mode during playing from playlists?
