Aaron, ZeeVee isn’t really focusing on the consumer home TV market anymore — for an update on the company see this article: http://www.xconomy.com/boston/2009/03/24/free-zinc-browser-and-pro-version-of-zvbox-breathe-new-life-into-zeevees-internet-video-technology/. But the quick answer to your question is that ZeeVee’s system is not well suited for apartments. You have to be able to locate the head end for the cable (the place where it enters your apartment) in order to install a filter to keep the content that’s flowing over the cables from your computer from going out to your neighbors. That’s often not possible in an apartment building (I know it’s not in mine).

I have an apartment. Will my neighbors have access to my computer or what I am watching? How does the computer connect to the TV?

Sign me up. I have not considered purchasing other media streaming devices because they all had limited content menus (i.e. way too many movie trailers). Also, I was not really thrilled by setting up another networked device near my TV. But if I understand ZvBox correctly, I should be able to play/watch ANYTHING I can get on Internet TV/movies or my computer hard-drive. I know, I know- sounds too good to be true. But if ZeeVee can back up their promises I don’t think there is really any other real choic anymore. I would gladly pay $500 assuming: 1) I get HD quality video; 2) there really are no subscription fees; 3) the remote control works OK. I just signed up for Hulu and have been really impressed by what’s out there. Seems like more new content sites every day.
