Pocket-Lint: Boxee has moved across to an Intel Atom CE4100 processor from an Nvidia Tegra 2 chip for higher bitrates during 1080p playback. And with its launch slated for November, parent company D-Link is about to start accepting pre-orders through Amazon.com in the States, Amazon.co.uk in the UK.
Starting last month, devices based on the updated SoCs have also started appearing. In this situation, it is conceivable that the last gen models are going to be available at attractive prices in the coming months. This review should be able to serve as a guide for your purchase of one of those models.
Gigaom - Boxee Box owners will soon be able to watch live television through the device, with the help of a special USB dongle that functions as a tuner for free over-the-air HD TV signals. The live TV feature is part of a major update to the Boxee platform that is likely going to be rolled out over the coming weeks.
Engadget - Boxee users on PC and Mac should no longer feel ignored, with promises of updated software on the way and now the option to use a Boxee Box remote from D-Link.
