Boxee Box Pre-Orders Start At $229

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the a-little-late-i-think dept.

Engadget is reporting that Boxee is taking pre-orders at $229 for their set-top box that is utterly guaranteed to not fit into any stereo component rack you might have. They also have switched chipsets from the Tegra 2 to the CE4100. I'm not sure about this thing, but I'd sure like to play with one as I lust for the day when every piece of media I have can be played from a single device. I suspect it'll never happen.

    it's not for sale on thinkgeek... i'm also enraged at taco's lie that networked media devices don't exist to play any media. they do.

    slashdot = stagnated.

    you couldn't possibly be any dumber...

    so a device takes in air from the top you say? and another expels hot air out of it's bottom... and you're saying it would be awfully difficult to line those up by stacking them?

    i bet you're great in bed... "sorry hun, that'd be awfully difficult to do"
