DISH Network Subscribers Can Get Logitech Google TV for $179

We were a bit confused as to how Google TV was going to work with existing cable and satellite providers, and initially we were under the impression that Google TV would make its debut on Logitech exclusively.
It didn’t happen that way, and it’s probably for the best. But now that Google TV hardware is on the market, Logitech and DISH Network are teaming up for a great deal on the Revue set top box by offering it for just $179. The Revue traditionally goes for $299, but DISH subscribers get a good deal.
Interestingly, those who get the Revue will also have to pay $4 a month to DISH as an “integration fee”. Whatever that means.
It’s hard to say how this whole content thing is going to shake out, but this is great if you’re already using DISH.

Well, its clear that summer is coming to a close because Logitech is ramping up its marketing efforts for the Revue, a set top box that will offer Google TV to those who subscribe to DISH Network this fall in the United States. The Revue is decidedly netbook-like internally, loaded with a Intel Atom processor.
Although traditionally a television would most likely destroy itself in spectacular fashion by doing this; I guess the idea of television being “reinvented” here is the main point.
