Brando HD Media Player Docking Station, just another Brando device?

Posted: 28 Jul 2009 01:00 PM PDT

Brando has been releasing a HDD Multimedia Adapter and Dock, left and right. Now, they’ve come up with the HD Media Player Docking Station which plays pretty much everything and works with resolutions up to 1080p. It has HDMI output, a SD/MMC/Memory Stick slot, and accepts 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SATA hard disk drives (HDD).

Here’s the bad stuff, the Brando HD Media Player Docking Station looks extremely cheap and flimsy and it will set you back $199 if you can stomach ordering it. Pretty expensive! The Popcorn Hour A-110 would be a better alternative, but of course the PCH doesn’t have the convenience of the top-loading hard drive dock. Better yet, get the Blu-ray upgradeable Popcorn Hour C-200 instead!
