The three little exceptions are that you need a fully HDCP enabled card and there aren't many out there so this as great as it is won't do much for most people even those with 7 series video cards, it needs a dualcore CPU which somewhat negates is use for HTPCs and it requires a battery of software which make it less of an option for lower budget users. Also I'd like to see some independent tests before I accept that it is truly as powerful as nVidia states, how often have we seen manufacturers make wild claims that are only accurate in specific circumstances? Despite this looks like a great tech, can't wait to see ATI's response.
