Finally settled to buy HD media player.

priorities are play any file, DLNA certified streaming, looks good, Good HD upscaler, within 10k.

I have come across
-WD LIVE TV (new 2012),
-Asus series ( Oplay Hdp-R3 and HD3)
-Himedia 600b
and today i came across
-Sony SMP-N100 (may be not officially launched in india)

I am very much confused what to buy. I am impressed with the sony one as it is as low as 4k(ebay) and i like the sony UI in tv and dvd player.

Himedia is Chinese and not available in india to buy. :( but cool looks it has.

Asus HD3 is good, but the front ports are ugly.

sorry, if i sound nooby....but please advice.
