SageTV HD 200

Launched December 1st, 2008 - nearly a year after the HD100 - the SageTV HD200 is a 1080p capable compact network media streamer. Unlike some complex streamers which include built in hard disks, the HD200 follows the miniature Western Digital TV HD, using only external sources for media. Unlike the WD TV however, the Sage primarily uses a network connection - utilizing networked computers to stream from and store recorded TV.
