We thought we had another week or so to get ready, but no, the
Popbox is on sale already, with some preorderers reporting they got shipment notifications as early as yesterday. In case you've forgotten since CES, the $129 box takes the Popcorn Hour into a more general consumer friendly form with an all new
interface and
SDK,
YouTube access, support for 100Mbps bitrate 1080p video and more -- just not the Netflix access (
at least for now) we were
originally promised. According to the official Twitter account -- also accessible with a new "Popapp" -- a quicker than expected route through customs is to thank/blame for the launch, but whatever, we're one step closer to the 2010
media streamer battle we've been waiting for. It's your move, Boxee Box.
[Thanks, Jason]
