Ok, just jumping a little ahead of myself and starting a new thread for this product instead of just tagging to the end of that netgear thread.

The box will ship on November 10th in the US and Canada and I've bitten the bullet and done did go and pre-order one. $225 after tax (free shipping) from Best Buy Canada.

I know Matt has also pre-ordered (US) so it's going to be interesting to see who gets it first.

Reading the Boxee forums it's apparent that the developers have been working on the box-specific version of the software and have not been rolling those changes into the public install-anywhere version. There's no telling what changes, fixes or features differ from the public beta at this point. And there's been nothing announced about when the public version will be on par with the Box version nor when the Box version will once again be updated...
