My intel mini handles it fine. Now, take away all the front end applications and OS processes hogging up my processor and bandwidth, and I think you can create an embedded OS that has the capability to play 1080p. I guess I am one of the few videophiles who craves MORE HD. Also, you could integrate the dock on 1080p output. The ipod itself could play a 480x270 scaled version in a "proxy" like way on the ipod itself.
'videophiles' - excuse me? Is that an implication of knowledge regarding HD? If so where in gods earth did you get the idea you can pack an ipod with the requisit power to play back 1080p ? Processing power, Heat dissapation, Drive size and throughput, IO - how the hell are you going to get what you need in the size of a freaking ipod?
