So, I've found it tough to find this information. I understand how GoogleTV works, and its a fantastic concept. I also understand that for a 'full DVR experience' with GoogleTV, you need to have dish network. (not a chance in hell)
My question is, how will the box/service/etc integrate with non-dish STBs? I see the logitech box has HDMI-IN and HDMI-OUT, which is great. This offers the potential of the GoogleTV box passing video through. What about my program guide? Will I be able to search my channels? HDMI only passes AV signals (not data), so it would need to get my program guide info elsewhere. Will it leverage the web to get this data? This, so far, is my only question/concern about GoogleTV.
