At this point, I'm leaning heavily in the Boxee Box direction, but waiting until the final reviews are in. On paper, Google TV should be right in my wheelhouse, as I've got a Dish Network DVR that's fully compatible with it. Unfortunately, the Google TV reviews suggest that the integration is very disappointing. Now, it's likely that any potential Boxee Box integration with my DVR will also be disappointing, and certainly the Google TV boxes could get firmware upgrades that make things better, but Boxee's had a long time to get the HTPC thing right, whereas Google is new to the game (though obviously no stranger to entering a market late and being instantly competitive.)

My hope is that the impending arrival of the Box gets Google really working hard on better DVR integration and improved UI on their boxes. If not, I'll probably settle for the Box, and deal with the fact that DVR content and HTPC content will be pretty much separate.
