Will it be able to play 1080p dxva compatible media too? I'm not seeing any gpu in that spec list that would suggest it could.

emerging from all over the world ...these companies have come together to fight the evil that is apple... we are all saved !!!

it works on iphones you say ?!

\END FAIL

but seriously can't wait to test this out in my living room.

any software version for the PC? or MCE plug-in? i already have an HTPC, a rather use that than some other separate set-top box.

but then again, they'll make are money by selling separate preparatory hardware so it seems very likely....

The gpu is based on Powervr SGX535 and Intel calls it Graphics Media Accelerator 500. The CE4100 is not only CPU, but SoC and have build-in Atom core, GPU and two DSP. It was design by Intel for this application. you can read more about it here:

I hope Google TV is reasonably priced.
It's $55/month for 15/1 and 100GB/month cap here. In no time I'd be paying 0ver-bandwidth fees...

Wonder what the true cost of ownership and use is going to be. If there is a bandwidth cap, then the fees for extra bandwidth are usually high.

Another step in Google world domination. Soon Google will know not only what you do online, but what you watch too.

I thought they would have stopped at the Google toilet.

Google is "skynet" and soon it will become self-aware.
