    Default Support for onlive?

    Not sure if this goes in this forum but I wanted to bring up the idea of supporting the gaming service onlive. Now im not much of a gamer, but it seems like a good idea. The hardware they have, im assuming, isnt much more powerful than the boxee box. The only issue i see is maybe with the controller but if they could make one and sell it separately it could be a killer app for boxee.

    That would be an awesome value add for the Boxee Box!!!!!

    According to engadget Onlive just partnered with intel to bring streaming gameplay to devices with Atom CE4100. Which is what boxee uses, so hopefully it will come out soon.

    Yeah would be a nice addition, at least for those with no data caps on their net connection.

    It doesn't use alot of bandwidth.
    Of course if hot play every day for many hours each day then I guess you might have bandwidth issues.
