Don't forget the
Popbox, Kenny. It's supposed to be released a lot sooner than the Boxee Box (sometime this month last I heard, or at least "Spring 2010"), offers several content providers (including Netflix, but no Amazon or MLB) and supports local network streaming and a significant list of video file containers and codecs. All at a reportedly similar and fairly competitive price to the Roku DVP ($130/$150 w/Wi-fi, last I heard). In my mind, the Popbox is going to be more competition for the Roku than the Boxee Box -- at least for now, primarily because it is going to be available much sooner and for a cheaper price than the Boxee Box. But you are correct,
right now, the Roku DVP is the best STB out there IMO. That could be changing here very soon though.
