What appeared the past few years to be smoke and mirrors looks like it could be for real soon. XStreamHD which showed of its service the past two years looks like they may be getting ready for launch.

XStreamHD put out press releases letting us know that manufacturing has started on its media boxes in preperation of a 2010 launch. A company called Jabil Circuit has begun the production of XstreamHD’s state of the art HD Media Server and Pro Media receiver hardware.

The boxes will offer true 1080p with lossless 7.1 DTS Master Audio to customers of the XStreamHD service and also delivers content to other DLNA enabled devices in your house.

We have heard at CES that XStreamHD will be announcing their launch date for their 1080p movie service. I hope at CES they will also have some announcements of content providers, as no matter how great the hardware is, its is worthless without the great content to go along with it.

I am scheduled to sit down at CES with XStreamHD CEO George Gonzales and am looking forward to hearing what he has planned for us.
