What i also found:

Quote:

The LaCie LaCinema Classic Bridge is an A/V external hard drive case with media player software. The Classic Bridge has no included storage space, but has a SATA connection for 3.5" SATA drives and a USB port that one can connect USB hard drives to. The drives must be formatted in FAT32 (the device comes with a formatter utility). The Classic Bridge therefore allows its user to pick and choose the amount of storage required for them, and then provides a way via its embedded software and remote control, for the user to view their own media on their television. The Classic Bridge cannot, however, playback media stored on a networked PC, and must playback media that was loaded onto the drive using its USB port. The device will also upscale video to 1080p over its HDMI port. The Classic Bridge supports less media formats than other LaCinema devices.

where is it on sale for $59?

I dunno, i like the upscaling but a lot of the TVB series are in rmvb format. Doing conversion is gonna be a PITA
