Syabas Popcorn Hour C-200 review

Verdict:

The C-200 is probably the most versatile media streamer we've ever reviewed, but most people are unlikely to use all its features and should just get a PS3.

Review Date: 12 May 2010

Price when reviewed: £440

Supplier: http://www.advancedmp3players.co.uk

Reviewed By: Kat Orphanides

Our Rating 4 stars out of 5
