IMO, sad news.

I don't have any information on what Google's plans are for the software yet, but I hope the development staff all remain with the company.

Well, you can probably get a great price for your ex-SageTV hardware on eBay right now -- since they've stopped selling extenders directly, people ought to be gobbling them up from eBay sellers.

Cheers

Yup. I emailed them last night after seeing the announcement to find out if I could buy another extender from them. The answer was no.

I suppose I can wait to see what happens since I don't technically need another one right now. It was mostly to upgrade to the newest model which is supposed to be faster with an even speedier UI.
