The year of the set-top box continues with the release of the frighteningly-named Monsoon Volcano. This sleek back box combines several useful features, including time-shifting, recording, and Internet streaming. Use it to schedule and record programs, then transfer them wirelessly to your smartphone. The company will offer electronic program guide apps for the major smartphones, so that you can set recordings remotely, as well.
The Volcano also let you surf the Web on TV and watch YouTube videos and purchased or rented movies from CinemaNow. Other video apps, such as Boxee, will be added through the year, the company says. Look for the Volcano in March in two configurations: a $199 version with 4GB flash memory and a $299 version with a 250GB hard drive.
