Logitech Revue/Google TV/Twinspires

Does anyone have this combination? Can you watch the Twinspires live race videos through Chrome?

What do you think of Google TV?

I've used Google tv to access twinspires, works great. There is a big sw update coming this summer and some new devices, you might want to hold off a few months to get the next hw revision.

Thanks!

What I'm hearing is a SW update only.

I know what the complaints are, but I think I still want it anyway.

I'm happy with mine fwiw, but the sw update should be a big improvement.

I got the Revue and so far I like it. I especially like using the keyboard and the big screen TV with YouTube. Lots of interesting music stuff on YouTube.

TwinSpires works better than on my laptop.

I agree, having full Youtube on the TV and having a keyboard is pretty much the killer feature for Gtv at the moment. I've spent a lot more time on Youtube setting up subscriptions and searching out channels that are interesting and setting it up to be useful. A lot of good content on Youtube.

I've also used their rental feature several times recently for new movies, works well.

I've found myself getting a little tired of Netflix streaming. I think I've watched just about everything I can think of, they don't seem to be adding new content to streaming at anywhere near the rate they need to. It's turning into a dry hole.
