This is part 1 of a 20 minute review. Part 2 is linked as a response to this video. Part 1 includes: – still shots of device and remote – regular device startup – quick device startup – device shut down – overview of main navigation – web page navigation – Hulu blockade – Netflix app Part 2 includes: – Pandora app – quick search using the magnifying glass button – quick search for video – quick search for music – YouTube leanback – play a DVD – play video and music on USB flash drive – my final commentary Note: I do not have cable TV, satellite (eg, Dish network), or a DVR. I only use Google TV for online content, physical discs, and local media files. I made this review about 24 hours after receiving the Google TV set top box. The Sony model number is NSZ-GT1. The review is long (20 mins) because I go through each of the operations that were important to me. I shot video of my TV while using the Sony Internet TV. There are also a few still shots of the device and remote. Hopefully this overview will help you make a purchase decision. I complete love this Sony device and the Google TV application / OS. I paid for the device with my own money. The reason I leaned toward the Sony (9) rather than the Logitech Revue (9) is for a couple reasons: (a) I don’t have a blu-ray player, so for 0 I get a blu-ray player, (b) I wanted a small remote, not a keyboard (the Logitech comes with a small keyboard, and you pay 9 for a small remote), (c) I’ve had great past …

Thanks for the review! Can’t wait to get it.
@astrobill68
The point is you don’t watch cable tv. You are using Sony TV to watch internet content instead of cable content. He said he doesn’t pay for cable tv so how would he show how to watch it?
Chaotic, spasmodic, unscripted “review” that leaves people more confused about this mess than they were before. Doesn’t even clarify whether you can…you know…ACTUALLY JUST WATCH CABLE TV on the thing. Fail. Epic Fail.
Can you play your own video on it like with WD TV, Boxee box, Popcorn hour or is it like only for web base services on the internet?
@Sniki3 I actually have one and the web browser is glorious..it does need an incognito mode though
These types of units need a better internet browser that is designed for a 15 foot user interface…They need to design a similar browser that is used in mobile/cell phone units but with an opposite objective. Make it friendly for a 15 foot user interface.
@ivteckn2000 your so stupid. lol. first learn your english before you bash on other people. disappointment, waste, lags. i think your the useless one. who the hell spells lags “legs”. dont even say it was a typo. are you too poor to buy one yourself? i think you misunderstood the reason for this product. its not for you to use the internet 24/7, it’s STILL A TV with extra benefits. now what tv do you have? hmm… a 30 inch projection?
@socaljake That’s the cable internet rate, you noob, not cable TV.
@CENTENOMONTOYA lmao
@socaljake internet service?
@WJB950 Bro you’re the man these people that buy this google tv are in for a big dissapoitment
you cannot access,ESPN3,JUSTINTV,BEETLETV,MYP2TV,.and other streaming site,before they make this TV to access all sites like you do on your PC it’s a waist of money plus it legs on game playing.useless
can you go on facebook and use facebook chat?
@CENTENOMONTOYA incognito mode,
Good review, but you should concentrate on the device you’re reviewing rather than the services and prices of them.
@socaljake he said he didn’t had cable or dish attached to the tv he didn’t say he didn’t have cable
@CENTENOMONTOYA no men
OMG….Sagetv is now owned by Google.
no thanks for this google tv fad. I’ve been streaming for years. Get a 1 or more digital tv cards for a dedicated pc. Install linux…download SageTV server. Use your rig to records over-the-air or control your cableconverter box. You can also stream over the internet. Yes it includes all the tv service this guy is playing with. Been doing this for years. Why buy a device with blocked content?
its ok unless it parts with the crap on lg
Hi I really liked your review. Please can you look at mine and tell me what you think and maybe subscribe to my channel. Just type in solodubz001 and you should see a video called sony play tv. Thank you
I hate hulu!!!
@socaljake at 4:20 he stated that he doesn’t have cable hooked it up to this system
@CENTENOMONTOYA sounds like a personal problem to me. hahahaha. I hope your parents see it.
