You think we will see other Google tv devices get the integration ability the revu had that is no longer made by logitech.

Google TV hasn't had much positive press lately. After Logitech got burned, you don't see too much commitment to the platform. Check these articles out for example.....

I am interested in the new Vizio box coming out. Looks like things are starting to get better slowly.

There are over 7 device manufacturers who either have the Google format, or will announce their products before year end. Also 3 television manufacturers have the platform now in their televisions. It will be interesting to see what Apple TV does, as they have been kinda quiet lately.

I didn't care much for apple tv. It's very limited.

Exactly!

My Roku box can do so much more than an Apple TV. The only that an Apple TV can do that my Roku can't, is access iTunes. And I'm not tied into locked system anyway.

Also roku is more affordable.

It would be nice if Dish allowed DRA on the GTV. But, I imagine they are worried that folks would use it to get around paying for an extra receiver, or possibly for a sort of stacking.

Can you access MLBtv via the Google Revue box? Can you record and save video via the ROKU...there's a WDtv box that allows you to save recordings. Thanks.

I suppose you could record the ROKU output, but it does not have recording capability built in.
