    $229 without a hard drive? We don't know the details yet but it's hard to guess what justifies making it more expensive than the D-link box.

    Also, kinda looks like Iomega is also going for a remote with grey letters on black background. Why oh why?

    I0th thosee are retail prices not actual "for sale" prices. The Boxee Box retails for $229, but is sold for $199. We will most likely see the same for this device.

    I see. Makes more sense then.
    As I've just read though, it looks like the $120 premium for the 2TB hd is a bit high when usb drives are getting so cheap.

    Actually that is a low premium. Most devices would charge a higher premium than that for a 2TB drive. Normal prices for bare 2TB drives are still around $100.
