Google TV on Sony and Logitech sets has not passed a usability test with tech writers at the NY Times. They found it unclear and unintuitive even for technophiles and said it would ‘alienate’ ordinary users:

“At this early stage, only three gadgets have Google TV: a 46-inch Sony TV (the catchy-named NSX-46GT1, $1,400) and two devices that put it on your existing TV, a Sony Blu-ray player (NSZ-GT1, $400) and a set-top box from Logitech called the Revue (steeply priced at $300).
