Ok, I made an Boxee Application called Soma FM 2. Why #2? Well, another developer made a Soma FM app some months ago. But, it did not list all 18 channels available on Soma FM and it would take over a minute or two to load on Boxee. So, I thought, let’s expand upon his initial idea and make a new and improved version. Yes, I did email him via the address inside his app code, but there was no reply. (more…)
I have a blog post with video coming up after the public release of Boxee Beta. I’ll explain how Boxee Beta works and how the Revo 3610 handles it all.
I’ll cover applications in Boxee that utilize GPU acceleration such as: Flash 10.1 Beta 2p, Silverlight, Move, and DX. Should be an interesting post. May require two posts!
Stay tuned come January 7th after CES.
Tonight the Boxee Beta was revealed to the public. The Boxee team demonstrated the new UI and the Boxee Box. Check the Boxee Blog for all the details, functions and some nice pics.

Nothing says it like a picture or in this case video. Here are three Acer Revo 3610 Atom Ion Video demos covering H.264 files, Hulu Desktop & IE, and Boxee. They will give the understanding of how smoothly the unit plays! Since I did not shoot this in HD, as I don’t have a HD cam yet, you will not get to see the fantastic clarity of the HD picture the Revo 3610 creates. I found that no one yet has posted any video of the 3610 on Youtube or Vimeo showing its functionality. So, I thought, why not? I’m not a great demo commentator or professional at this, so be gentle.
