Is the Logitech Revue worth $99? Does it play XVID and MKV files?

no its not even worth $99 and not well. There are much better choices for $99 like the WDTV Live.

You recommend the basic WDTV device? Does it play MKV, XVID, and other formats?

Why isnt it worth it? I decided to give it a try, always return it if I dont like it. Only thing thats bugging me is the lag in loading things, maybe its because of the Atom cpu. What does the WDTV have? Google TV is nice for what it is, just want to make sure there isnt anything better for my $100.

@ OP... what are you planning to use the Google TV for? If you are planning to use it to playback local content = there are ALOT of media players for $99 or less that can do better than Google TV... If you planning to stream and surf the web = then the Google TV is better (but web content is still limited)...


Which feature is more important to you? Web surfing or comprehensive file format playback?
