What's great about it: Flexible, well designed
What's not so great: A little pricey
I have an Apple TV, but wanted a good Plex client that didn't require hacking the ATV. Roku was the other option, but they were out at my local BB that day and I happened to see this box. Took it home and glad I did.
The included Plex client is gorgeous, love the HDMI pass through (wish the ATV did that) and a fair number of apps are available. Not quite as easy to use as the ATV, but just slightly. Only real con is price, but it's not *that* much more than a Roku or ATV.
Overall - recommended.
I would recommend this to a friend!

tv requirements

Do I have to have a smart tv for this to work and also is it full web browsing or limited to apps
No, this box actually makes *any* TV a "smart" TV. Full web browsing (except for Flash) through the Google Chrome browser that's included.
