Recently, Google announced GoogleTV, the company’s inroads into assisted TV viewing.
Thing is, folks like me have been using Media Center type devices for ages. First there were Media Center PC’s enabled with TV Tuner cards and Windows XP/Vista/7 Media Center Editions. Then, over the past couple years, we’ve seen dedicated streaming devices that can play back in HD resolution video streams over the internet and from shared home storage devices.
Our friends at Gigaom did a great piece that’s worth a read that compares the new Google TV with a few of the incumbent devices out there and the online services that they provide. Now I only wish that they gave details on the ability to play media files from one’s home network!
