> In the end, what Logitech unveiled is just a beginning. These are baby steps, and early adopters will pay for being first on the bandwagon. Yes, there’s a need for unifying the disparate content sources. The question still remains, though, how well that disparate content can be unified. This may be a tougher challenge than even Google can tackle. After all, even 20 years after reunification, Germany retains some of its long-standing divisions. The chaos in the living room may prove to insurmountable barriers, too.

$300 makes this device a non-starter. Having a keyboard in my living room makes it a non-starter. This thing is weaker than the Apple TV was three years ago, and people are talking about it as if Google is going to take over the world tomorrow.
I like Logitech products in general. But the whole concept of the Google TV is flawed from the start. No one wants to surf the web on a TV. We want to watch shows and movies. Period. And that can’t be done any better than it is now until someone takes the Cable companies out to pasture. And we all know how likely that is.
This product literally offers nothing that a cheap mini-computer hooked up to your tv can’t do. The five people (including myself) who were going to do that have already done it. So who is the audience for this thing?
