Now that I've had the Logitech Revue with Google TV for a few weeks, I've been able to put my thoughts down on (virtual) paper.

I've hooked up countless devices to my various flatscreens in an attempt to bring the world of IPTV to the big screen. The ones I liked the most up until now were Wherever.TV and the original Apple TV (clearly these two devices were very different but they both fulfilled their respective missions very well).

Several laptop or desktop to flatscreen hookups were less than satisfactory. I also have a Panasonic flatscreen that has a very limited walled garden.

So I looked forward to getting my Logitech Revue, which finally arrived late last month. After a quick (13-minute) setup, I think we have a winner. With the somewhat notable exception of content on major network sites, you can pretty much go anywhere and watch anything on the Net using Google TV.

I was able to watch streaming and archived TV programs from networks in Germany, Austria, Italy, and other countries with relative ease and the keyboard/remote is excellent.

A complete review is available online - with more photos - for those who are interested.
