Can anyone confirm that the Revue will play video files stored on a computer or NAS device? I can't imagine it not being able to either right away or with an update, but I can't find much info on this.

The best I've found is on the Revue help site:
Revue Customer Care-Answers

What media formats are supported on Logitech Media Player?

The Logitech Media Player supports many different file types, including:

Music: AAC (.aac), FLAC (.flac), MP3 (.mp3), OGG (.ogg),WMA (.wma)
Photos: JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg), BMP (.bmp) PNG (.png), TIFF (.tiff)
Videos: WMV (VC-1) (.asf .wma .wmv), WMV (VC-1) + WMA (.asf .wma .wmv), WMV + WMA (.avi), Xvid (H-264) + AAC (.avi),
Xvid (H-264) + AAC (.mp4), Xvid (H-264) + AAC (.mt2s .mt2), Xvid (MPEG4part2) + AAC (.avi), Xvid (MPEG4part2) + MP3 (.avi)

NOTE: Some video formats will not work with the Logitech Media Player.

Ideally, it would be able to browse Windows file shares and play/display photos, videos, and music.

Duh, right on the bottom of the page I linked above:

  2. From the Networked sources or USB sources list, select the media server you want to access.
    [*]Navigate to and select the video folder from your server.
  3. Use the arrow keys to navigate to the video you want and press OK to play.
