It's been a long time coming! One of the biggest, if not the biggest, requests for the Boxee Box has been the inclusion of Netflix support. The Box has seen some amazing success, but without Netflix, it has lagged behind Roku's boxes and the Apple TV, among others. Finally, after a long wait, the issues have been worked out and support has...

Vudu is yet another movie rental service, but it differs from most by offering...

The Boxee Box, produced by D-Link, has been in the hands of consumers for just over two weeks now. The product was delayed a few times, but now that it's out there, the competition is probably looking at it for a newly set bar.

Well, this explains a lot. The Boxee Box has been somewhat of a unicorn over the past months, with delay after delay sinking the hype that came with the product's initial launch.

Late last year, the folks at Boxee seemed to think that the Boxee Box (which was being built by D-Link) would be available to consumers in the first half of 2010. It's sort of tough to believe, but the first half of 2010 is just about over. With the latter half quickly...

NVIDIA's Tegra chip has barely been around long enough to gain traction. Microsoft's Zune HD uses it and a few lesser-known devices can claim the same, but outside of that, Tegra hasn't really lived a life in the spotlight. With the attention that Ion has received, we get the feeling that Tegra 2 will be a different story.As of today, you...
