DeviceGuru writes "Following closely on the heels of the December announcement of D-Link's BoxeeBox, Syabas Technology today said it will ship the PopBox, a $129 Internet-based A/V streaming set-top box (STB) in March. Both new gadgets have the potential to give Roku's popular STB a run for its money. All three boxes can deliver range of Internet-based A/V streaming and social networking services to consumers' TVs. Like Roku's digital video player STB, the PopBox will include Netflix on-demand video streaming when it first ships. D-Link, meanwhile, is rumored to be scrambling to add Netflix streaming support to its BoxeeBox device as well, prior to inaugural shipments of that device. All three run embedded Linux OSes, and all are expected to sell for less than $200. Looks like 2010 is shaping up to be a watershed year for low-cost Internet-streaming STBs!"

The summary of it that although Google Chrome is in a beta stage, it is fast, stable, and has a simple, clean, and effective GUI design. In other side, Google Chrome has a small numbers of extensions; doesn't support RSS, lake of integration with KDE, and it doesn't support complex scripts very well.
Personally, I didn't succeed to play flash player on Google Chrome beta 1 (I am using OpenSUSE 11.2) and I wonder how will be the quality of Google Chrome OS specially it bases on Linux and Google Chrome."
