Control TiVo, Lights With Your PSP Myriad hacks are emerging for the PSP as eager tweakers have their way with the black box. Add to the list the ability to control your home automation system (and TiVo) wirelessly. Liquidice explains: I now have the ability to turn my lights on and off. [I] have full control (Play, Stop, Pause, Menu) of my DVD player, TIVO, and High Def TV, all wirelessly from my PSP. ... I put an image map on [some] graphics and created some HTML pages which are hosted on my WACI NX server. The links are crafted so that when the PSP highlights and clicks on a spot on the image map, it instructs the WACI NX server to send an IR signal to my A/V equipment or triggers it's relays to cut power on the lights. While he doesn't have step-by-step instructions, he explains his methodologies pretty clearly, and mentions that an official Sony web browser for the PSP will make things much simpler.

Mvisto Pocket DivX Player Reviewed (Verdict: Fantastic) I4U has a review on the Mvisto DivX Player. Very similar indeed to the Wigobyte Mvolt-100 Media Flash we mentioned last week, it lacks the Mvolt's soft, supple curves but includes a 40GB hard drive. (It may very well be an OEM derivative of the Wigobyte device, actually.) The Mvisto excels in playing back DivX files on your TV and can even read ISO files, allowing you to copy full DVDs with playback of all its special features. The on-screen interface actually looks quite charming, and it's powered through its USB port. (You use an adapter to plug into the mains when playing back on your TV.) The review is overall very favorable and the Mvisto is only $325 through MacPower distributors, although you have to contact them to purchase a unit for now.
