I have an Apple iTV (most recent one) and it's been pretty disappointing. Always freezes and crashes regardless of the continuous upgrades. The app's available are a joke as well. It'll be interesting to see how Microsoft's attempt goes. My guess is it's 10 times worse, lol! I'm considering getting the Roku here shortly.
I don't like the idea of voice command....makes it to easy to have some jackass come in the room and turn the channel.....you also probably have to censor conversations around the TV otherwise the thing might be flipping through all the channels.....
That Xbox 360 Voice Command looks nothing like Siri. To me it looks really cumbersome and a remote would be easier. Simple voice commands, which many products have offered and have never really taken off, are not comparable to Siri.
