shuttle digital home d10

Shuttle is branching out a bit with the introduction of the Shuttle D Series D10 system. According to the press release, the D10 is a “digital home appliance” designed to be a standalone media center system. Standalone here means it comes with an embedded 7 inch touch panel that displays a media server gadget application designed to deliver various applications.

Shuttle claims that the D10 can be used in applications such as home surveillance simply by adding in surveillance software and hardware.

There will be three different versions of the graphical user interface powered by Linux or Windows. With the user interface, users will be able to access and control multimedia content via the Internet or intranet storage.

There really isn’t a whole lot on this device as of yet so I’ll reserve my thoughts for now. Truth is – doesn’t it look like a regular Shuttle SFF system with an embedded display? If so – it’s simply Shuttle trying to find a different target market for a product that they’re good at developing which is small form factor PCs.
