There are some new models being released for those interested in set top devices, over at GoVideo. This R6740 model may be of interest to some. Lately, when renting a DVD, I am increasingly accosted with drivel prior to the display of the menu for the main feature. Often, there are several previews presented. I then start pressing the fast forward on my remote for what seems like an eternity. Especially annoying to me is when one of the previews is the movie I just rented and this seems to happen quite a lot. However, with the model shown here, you simply press the play button and are automatically transported to the beginning of the film, nice.
