So I happen to see this article on ZDNet, and since I'm looking through Google filtered glasses these days, I thought I'd check it out.
Like the author, I too was one that jumped on the AppleTV-wagon back in the day, also like the author, the luster has worn off for me as well. I was once an iPhone-AppleTV-MobileMe junky like many are, but now I'm an Android-Google-Cloud junky, also like many are.
AppleTV was great when I first got it, not only could I play movies and shows, but I finally had a means to play my music through my home theatre!
Google TV will be one of those products that I see in our house at some point after it comes out. First generation? Most likely not.
