Logitech nearly bet the farm on Google TV… and lost. Even at $100, they’ve been unable to exhaust the formerly $300 gTV Revue inventory. According to Logitech’s new CEO, they:
executed a full scale launch with a beta product and it cost us dearly
Indeed. And instead of doubling down on Google TV, they’re abandoning the platform. So, despite earlier intel to the contrary, there will be no Revue 2. Further, those that took a flyer on the Revue are still awaiting the Google TV 2.0 Honeycomb experience. Logitech tells me the update will arrive (late) by year’s end, but it’s merely lipstick on a pig and it’s probably safe to assume that the Revue will see no further improvement. Here’s to hoping for a robust Android Marketplace?
