Darksaber · Sep 10, 2011

Soungraph is the company behind all the great functionality of the major brand HTPC cases found on the market. With their retail products the company enables users to morph their normal cases and employ these as home theater system. We take a look at their first designed HTPC chassis called the Hummin' 3.03 and the first ever wireless USB based touch screen monitor.

Thanks for the interesting review.

You say "quite pricey". Pricing info would be good on the first page, plus also making it clearer on the value and conclusions, ie EUR 260 without display, EUR 360 including the display. Just EUR 100 for the display is quite good. But EUR 260 for the base unit is a bit OTT. Is it possible to buy the display separately and use it on my existing rig?

Generally speaking it is up to the reseller or distributor to decide what bundle to offer. My guess is, that the display will clock in at 250€ - 300€s at least. The chassis costs 260€ without display, while the dock (not the case) + Display comes in at 360€. So yes, it is rather expensive

Nice review.

There is one error though. You mention that you don't like the resistive screen. You then go on to say:

"If a long list of manufacturers can offer Tablets with resistive screens and a full system behind it, it should be possible to offer such a touch screen technology in something like this as well."

I think you meant "capacitive".

Even if one may say the system does not look attractive, considering its intended use, the case does make a very unique impression. Coupled with the touch screen, the entire scenario changes and the Hummin' 3.03 may remind you of the Origen S21T, as both feature large touch screen displays in the front.

Here's the impression the exterior design gives me: where does the paper come out? It looks way too much like a printer to me...and the price...ridiculously high for what it is, looks like, and does.

Great Review!

Interesting but to much money for me.

On cons you Put "Tables will..." did you mean Tablets.

interesting but i really dont see many people buying this product. for the price, the only reason to buy one of these is for the "cool" factor to show off to guests and such.
