I have a Roku and LOVE it.  As the apps for Roku mature, it can really turn
into quite the set-top box for media.  One thing I wish it had was a better
ability to navigate music/movies that exist on a locally attached USB
external HD.  Right now I can navigate through the music and videos, but it
is very feature-less.

I am wondering if the GoogleTV from Logitech as features like that?  Those
types of features weren't jumping out at me on Logitech's main page.
