IMO the tv is just like the ipod video.
It is great for music and photo viewing and the video is there but not ideal in the execution.
For 299 I can plunk the box into a living room system that will allow me to listen to my music library, share photos with friends and family and have the novelty of watching videos if I choose to, all thru a very slick interface and ease of use via remote.
For me, I would not want to use a mac mini or a lap top to do music and photos due to cost and not needing the other functions of running an OS on our living room system.
I understand the frustration on the video side of things but understanding where the tv is right now, I would not have bought if for the video aspect alone, but I love the idea of it as a general no frills, ease of use, media hub.
I think the folks who shop at Target for devices such as an tv will get that.
