I finally got my Mac mini!!! I love this thing. I will be getting the bluetooth/airport upgrade from my local apple store. At $99 for the upgrade, its a steal.

does anyone know of a decent keyboard with an integrated mouse? I want to use this system as my HTMac. I am waiting for the centerstage project to annouce supported tuners before i get one of those, but for now i want to have it run through my home theater.

I hope one of those Mac Media Center type programs are done in some form by the time the next mini comes out. I plan on retiring this current one to the TV, but so far all I've seen is concept shots. (And not very good ones either.)

I'm sorry, but I don't see any good themes on that site. Most are either unprofessional mock-ups, or unintuative, non-Apple-like. If I'm going to use a Mac Media Center, it HAS to work like a Mac. And none of those designers seem to have ever used a Mac. They're trying to make it look all eye candy. At least Apple can do Eye Candy and still make it functional.
