Better have a newer TV...
Venerable networking hardware provider D-Link has been chosen as the manufacturer of the first Boxee box. Boxee is an open entertainment platform that allows streaming of a variety of Internet content to televisions. The new Boxee Box is a device for those who prefer not to have to build a dedicated HTPC for the televisions, but who enjoy access to the Boxee service.
Now that YouTube is in 1080p, and other content providers are getting on the digital bandwagon, this is rapidly becoming an excellent way to consume digital content.
The Boxee Box will be available at retail in the first half of 2010. The manufacturer’s suggested retail price is still undetermined. Besides the ports shown in the picture, the Boxee Box will also support WiFi.
Icrontic will be taking a look at the Boxee Box at CES 2010, where it has been entered in the Last Gadget Standing competition.
