Just hurry up and launch it in the UK. Far less big media companies to deal with here! I'd love a box that did decent streaming from websites but was cheap, remote controlled in a small box (I just don't want a revo or similar - something light weight like this is far more appealing).

Not so. A lot of content comes from the US, and the UK broadcasters of that content must obey whatever strings are attached, which is why, for example, very few films appear on BBC iPlayer.

I suspect we'll have much the same issues here as they are having in the US.
