    Isn't this just Google's version of Apple TV/iTV?

    It's probably Google's version of Apple's version of every media streamer that's been out for ages, but Apple will somehow have a patent on it.

    Thought that the Google one, like the Apple one, had a (limited?) app playing capability too?

    (It's not something that particularly appeals to me, so be kind if my information is wrong...)

    Google bought Sage TV a while back and it vanished from the face of the earth. I suspect it's about to resurface
