Users
are reporting that Dell
is now shipping the Linksys DMA2200 for $300, despite their website still
saying 3-5 weeks.
The DMA2200 should support the exact same formats as the DMA2100,
including MPEG-2, MPEG-4 ASP (officially Xivd only), MPEG-4 AVC (H.264), and
VC-1/WMV9 but adds an integrated DVD player to the mix. The one key difference other than the integrated
DVD player is the addition of optical SPDIF.
Unless Linksys fixed the issue, be ready
to change the FourCCs of your DivX files if you want them to play on this
Extender.
Update: Fry’s
has them too.
