Is there anything I need to watch out for? I'll be pairing it up with a Qnap TS212 for streaming. The Qnap is setup to download from a news server and dump the video files (depending on movie or TV Shows) in the appropriate directory.

I need to read up on the YAMJ software built into this thing.
 
I used to be an owner of the older A-110 and bought mine originally for the fact it could BitStream HD audio. Beginning of this year I gave up the PCH option and opt'ed for a custom HTPC for each room in the home.

I loved my PCH in the beginning but the SLOW network really upset me to the point I stepped away. Streaming was never an issue but since I had installed a HDD in the unit that was my source of storing media. Also another issue I had with the PCH was the slow UI but I can't comment on the newer units.
 
The PCH will be replacing an ATV2, I just need a bit more juice to get decent quality Blue Ray movie rips to play. Trying to avoid the HTPC route. The new ones have true 1G ethernet ports. The wifey is complaining about XBMC pretty often now, so I need a simple, good working solution for everyone involved. ;)
