Sony NSZ-GT1 (Google TV)

Pros: Sony?s Google TV box converted my idiot SAMSUNG TV into Intelligent TV. Remote works great. Changing channel, volume, mouse, typing works great. While browsing Channel +/- button works as Page up/Down!! Web browsing while watching TV works great.

Cons: No games yet and limited apps available. Can?t download any thing. Sony please provide me option to upload/download files. Most frustrating part was Youtube.com/leanback bookmark. Don?t select youtube.com/leanback. While browsing can?t go forward.

Summary: Once I took it out of box within 30 minutes I finished installation and started using it. In setup process it asks you to all the info and then does software updates. Then you need enter all setup info again.

Remote works great. Changing channel, volume, mouse, typing works great. While browsing Channel +/- button works as Page up/Down!!

Web browsing while watching TV works great. If you open Excel attachment in gmail it uses google docs. Can?t download any thing. Sony please provide me option to upload/download files.

Performance and Speed is really good. As soon as I put DVD into blu ray disk, before I could reach my remote to change device DVD started playing on TV. Great feature Sony!!
Search is really nice. You can do it while watching TV.

Creating and Deleting bookmarks is simple. Created Bookmarks for all favorite channels and websites.

Cons: No games yet and very limited apps available. But I know they are on the way once android market opens up for Google TV.

Can?t download any thing. Sony please provide me option to upload/download files.
While browsing you can go back to previous site but can?t go forward. Sony please provide that feature. It?s an opportunity for App Developer to provide such user friendly feature.

Most frustrating part was Youtube.com/leanback bookmark. 1st time when I open youtube app, I selected Youtube leanback. The problem with leanback is it shows all crappy vides at the background when you open youtube app again. I don?t want to show such video?s to my kids. I tried to update that bookmark, but couldn?t do it. Tried to delete cookies of it but did not found anything. Deleted bookmark and recreated it but still it kept default setting as youtube leanback. After lot of frustration I restore factory setting and did all setup again. Recreated all bookmarks again. This time I made sure that I say ?No Thankyou? to youtube leanback. Don?t select youtube.com/leanback.

Summary: Sony and Google kept there promise. Apps market will bring revolution on TV platform.
