Amazon has the refurbished Logitech Revue Companion Box with Google TV and Keyboard Controller for $80 with free shipping. Integrates with HDTV and cable or satellite system, features 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi and Ethernet and comes with pre-loaded apps for Netflix, Pandora and more. Tiger Direct also has it for the same price.
I ordered this and just installed it...it looks like new. The only difference is there is no retail box. The only problem is I couldn't connect it HDMI through my receiver...had to bypass it and use the optical audio cable to pump the sound through....but that is due to my Motorola set-top box, not a Logitech issue. Cool device, I must say.

Thanks #3. Two questions:
Why the problem with the Motorola box? Can't you go Motorola -> Revue -> Receiver, all via HDMI? What didn't work?
Second, I hope you can describe a few things you're doing with it, and what you think works well...?
I'm very tempted to bite at this. I've been thinking about it for a while.
See if you can wait a few more weeks -- maybe as CES approaches we'll see the return of the new units at $100 or less.
