How do you deliver online HD video to your television? How about with a hard drive? LaCie just introduced the LaCinema Rugged, a multimedia drive the connects to your computer for loading and then to your HDTV for viewing.

The LaCinema Rugged works with both Windows and Macintosh computers, and offers 500GB of storage--enough for 700 movies, says LaCie. Connect with a USB 2.0 cable to load movies, music, or photos.

When you want to view that content on your TV, connect the drive with the included HDMI cable. The drive supports most standard and hi-def codecs, including H.264, MKV, WMV9, and MPEG-4.

The drive's design is modeled after the LaCie Rugged Hard Disk and features a scratch-resistant aluminum shell, internal anti-shock absorbers, and a shock-resistant bumper. Get it from the LaCie site for $349.99.

there's no way HD video can fit into ~700MB in order to store 700 or so videos on the drive... SD video only!
