"Reliable, versatile, easy to use, well worth the money."
4.0 starson by SighkadelikPros: Some decent apps
Remote is effective and functional and bluetooth is so much more convenient than IR
Browser is decent but not great
With the right apps I can do everything I need
Access to all my windows network filesCons: Not very fast
No gmail or gtalk apps
Not a lot of compatible apps yet though the important ones are there
Can't access it from my Windows networkSummary: I've had mine for about 5 months and am ready to post my review. I support the Google tv concept but have been disappointed with previous iterations and with other Sony devices and while this isn't quite as good as having a full on laptop connected to your tv, it's not too far off and clearly much cheaper. I give it a 4 because for the price if really does everything i need. I have a torrent client on it. Can stream anything from my tablet and smartphone. Can control all functions from my tablet and smartphone. I use a wireless keyboard with a kvm switch to control both my gtv and ps3 from one keyboard. The browser does lack some features but I can easily send any page or YouTube video from my phone, desktop or tablet to the TV with one click. PIP is convenient, and my whole media center had really been consolidated. So all in all, I'm really happy with it. It was an impulse buy i feared I'd regret and expected to but I have to say it's a nice surprise.
