However, the outer shell of the Media Xtender is flimsy and appears as if it
is about to break at the slightest impact. For that reason, we would not recommend this device to a frequent traveller, as it may not be able to withstand the jerks and pressure applied to it.
The Media Xtender just does not stand firmly on its feet. Overall, this device can be used for home PCs. The actual card readers and USB hub work well, as does the soundcard, but its sturdiness (or lack of it) may be a cause for concern.
For: Good device drivers and good digital output make Xtender a good soundcard. Plus it can be controlled by remote control.
Against: The device is very fragile, and its plastic underside appears rather tacky and makes it less sturdy.
