Amazon Unbox offers NBC premieres for free; carry and watch on your UMPC

NbcchuckWant to catch an early look at four of NBC’s television premieres a full two weeks before they premiere? No problem, just hit up the iTunes store. Oh wait a second: Apple and NBC are squabbling over content pricing, so that’s no good. We’ll have to resort to Plan B and hit up the Amazon Unbox video service. If you do, you’ll see the following four NBC premieres available for a free download now: Bionic Woman, Chuck, Journeyman and Life.

I just ran the Amazon Unbox installation to see if this will work on my Samsung Q1P; it really doesn’t meet the minimum system requirements, falling short of the 1.5 GHz processor but it did install and it does run. The 43-minute premiere was an 850 MB download but well worth the wait; it plays extremely well on my UMPC but of course, your mileage may vary based on your UMPC. You should have no issues on any modern notebook or desktop. If you don’t see any posts from me in the 43-minutes at least you’ll know why.
