Especially since a majority of it's features are available on the $60 Roku?
Responses:
It hurs that piece of hardware but I think Google TV as overall product / service has a chance to be judged separately

As a similar analogy, the first phone to feature iTunes compatibility was a monster called the Rokr. After that, Apple never dabbled in phones again. -- nm

Built in DVR functionality is what is necessary. Add that to the Roku, and it will FTW. That's why I'm optimistic about the MCE settop boxes.

I already have a dual-tuner HDPVR, so I'm confused as to where GoogleTV will fit in my device chain. -- nm

I have a number of boxes connected to my TV, but the simplicity of handling everything through a single box is an excellent selling point. -- nm

Aren't these units being marketed more towards people wanting to get away from Cable TV? -- nm

The Tivo can record from over-the-air (OTA) too. That's the single highest quality picture you can get outside of Blu-ray. -- nm
