Asus O!Play HDP-R3 review

Verdict:

The card reader and wireless network adaptor make the HDP-R3 more flexible than the original, but we don't feel that they're quite worth the price difference.

Review Date: 1 Feb 2010

Price when reviewed: £123

Supplier: http://www.oyy.co.uk

Our Rating 4 stars out of 5
