I have seen the NBN, and it looks a lot like Christina Aguilera.

The Pro805 frustrates as much as it innovates with a touchscreen interface and an interesting, iPhone-style app store.
The appliance format of the Kbox 1000 puts a new slant on systems management, making the process significantly easier, quicker and more affordable compared to traditional software-only solutions.
