Here is a really nice video of an Intel Powered set top box. Intel has 3D tech and multiple video decoders. However, note the CE3100 is stated as only decoding two HD channels at the same time (so this demo must be SD). Nonetheless its impressive.
Intel also announced that they have ported FLASH to the CE3100.
It all sounds too great to be true. Rumour is that Intel have trouble getting the price of the device down to the levels where it is viable in typical set tops. I also wonder about power dissipation and standby power rules for Europe...
