Does anyone know if there is a media player out there that supports Sky Go?

I know that the Xbox does but I'd rather have something that is silent and something that is wireless without having to pay a subscription.
Basically I want to be able to watch HD movies from a hard drive and watch Sky on a TV.
If only my WDTV LIve was able to have Sky Go.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I'm pretty sure there is no other option than XBox or Windows-based media centre. Android tablets support it (a VERY limited number of Android devices) so you MAY be able to find an Android-based media device that supports it unofficially.

Thanks AmbientMike.

Been reading about the Acer Revo.
Has anyone here got one of these and can comment about it?

Not a bad price if it does what it says. If I put windows 7 on it then it should be able to use Sky Go?

As long as you can run Windows (and there is enough horse power in the CPU / GPU) then you can get Sky Go working.

And if you use XBMC you can integrate it with that so you wont have to open and close different programs.
