Finally official, the new Boxee Box is pretty cool. I think it is at $199, and is a self contained media player - with remote. Basically, Plex and Boxee are the two main XBMC ports, and while we're obviously partial to Plex on this blog, that doens't mean Boxee is bad. If anything, I'd love to see more on the remote they have - really nice! I wish Harmony would make a remote like that!
So what do you guys and gals think of it? Comment away!

UPDATE - Here is a youtube of the beta:
It is definitely cool that you pick the show and Boxee scans all online sources for the show. The first "con" that comes to mind though, is if you rely on that for new shows (like CSI, in the example), often times networks will only keep an episode online for a little bit of time. But, that's just a thought - what do you guys think?
