    I just received the HP mini 110 with the broadcom hd crystal chip. I'm finding this purchase mostly useless as I can't easily find HD material that will run using it inside the arcsoft software. Adobe 11 I hear will sometime in 2010 but now I can't find much except some third rate movie sites. Where should I look?

    The Broadcom chip won't work with websites. At least not yet. Only within ArcSoft's TotalMedia. What kind of files have you tried on it? Should run OK.

    Some mkv movie trailers. 1080p Video looks awesome. Some 1080p content I downloaded had no audio and I'm not sure why.
