I don’t know what the big deal is. I have Google TV with Direct TV and to record a show all you have to do is pull up the Direct TV guide with the Google TV remote and press record.

I have no idea what Google TV is or what it does and I don’t care.

They should just have Nexus make the Google Nexus TV. I have a Nexus TV that i use for gaming and it far exceeds the over all quality of the sharp aquos I paid way to much for. The picture quality colors, brightness, sound quality and volume on the Nexus TV is the best I’ve ever seen and it was cheap in comparison to other brands.

I would love to see a nexus google tv. I love my revue (with 3.1), but I doubt I will see any official updates ever again. It would be nice to not have to worry about buying a new Gtv at every major update due to lack of continued manufacturer support. I really wish Google would just sell their own motorola box.

Angry Birds doesn’t work, you’re limited to the small number of made for Google TV apps. Angry Birds isn’t one of them.

We need to seriously hack this b1tch up!!

That is correct, unless you have a few specific devices that can communicate with the google tv device, then you cannot intereact with your recordings in any way.

I’m pretty sure you cannot use angry birds, only apps that don’t require touch.

No.

I had Dish Network when I bought my Revue and it was great. Just start typing a show or movie and it came up instantly – then set it to record.

I switched to cable and can no longer do that. It searches the web for shows and movies, it will even show you content on at the current time of a search, but it is very limited.

You cant search the contents of your dvr with google tv?
Also, how does an app like, for example, angry birds work on google tv?

I don’t think I will be interested in google tv until it has full DVR integration. I understand this is available with certain Dish Network DVR devices, but they need to push and make it reality with other providers too.

Once I can search: live tv, netflix, hbo go, dvr, hulu, youtube, web, etc. all with one interface, I’m on board.

If there is a Nexus tablet, it will be unveiled the same day as Android (and not the GTV version, I mean the version we discuss daily) :)

Maybe Google I/O this year will have more home automation. I think that’s the bee’s knees.

Glad to see Google TV forge on.

As Revue owners, however, we should get a free upgrade

you must also believe in the tooth fairy and santa if you still think posting irrelevant “first” comments is cool.

I reckon the third day at I/O is for Google TV.

Also, that’s where we’ll likely see the Nexus tablet, if it exists.
