Element is a free operating system for home theater PCs, media center computers, and set-top boxes. It features an innovative "across the room" interface designed to be connected to your HDTV for a digital media and internet experience from within the comforts of your own home.

Element comes loaded with the software needed to stream all forms of web content and manage your own multimedia and download library. It includes many popular open source applications, each adapted to our unique interface, such as the Firefox Web Browser, Pidgin Messenger, and XBMC Media Center, along with access to numerous online content services from Hulu, Cooliris, Boxee, Clicker, Amazon on Demand, Youtube XL, and more. Pair it up with your Netflix or XBox live account for even more streaming content!

Think about it – you might never need to pay for cable t.v. again! Why subscribe to tier after tier of channels you never watch? See your favorite shows for free online, on your own schedule. For example, I watched entire seasons of LOST right off the network website, and still got to see them on my bigscreen television.

There’s also a lot to be said for turning your television into a giant web browser. Relax on your couch while you catch up on Facebook, check FreeCatcher for the newest freebie offers, and see what’s new on Youtube – all by way of an easy to use across-the-room interface.

You can control Element via any QWERTY remote control, or via your Android smartphone.
