    If there are, Boxee hasn't announced them. They typically don't announce features in advance.

    Boxee has not yet announced about this feature. So if it is gonna release then we all get that concern. We can't assume anything in advance about Boxee's support.

    hahaha good luck with that, I asked we get DLNA push ability a while ago and that seems easy to implement as most TV/BD players have it so why not BBox yet no word from devs and is very similar to airplay so they have no excuse, would be nice to use BBox to push photo's/home movies etc from my phone to the TV via DLNA (Android Phone and no there is no good airplay app in the Play Store). But no they decided to make cloudee, which means i have to upload to the cloud to let people see my pictures on the big screen. No thanks rather just upload to my WHS or use the DLNA app in my new TV and plus WHS is my own personal cloud so no need for cloudee. No way will you see WiDi on Boxee at least not the current hardware.

    With DLNA you can push JUST content, WiDi is more or less for full screen sharing over wifi and if they cant get airplay/DLNA right no way will you ever see WiDi on Boxee, here is hoping next gen is has all the features one would want
