Boxee Becomes A Box, Howcast Explains How To Use It

Boxee is showing off at CES one of my favorite pieces of hardware married to one of my favorite pieces software, and to top it all off my favorite provider of content is explaining how to use it.

Boxee Beta Software In Action Boxee is launching their IPTV set top box powered by the Nvidia Tegra 2, this is the big brother to the Tegra that powers Zune, and several upcoming Windows Mobile 7 phones.

Boxee is a rather unique IPTV solution.  Rather than using the traditional content provider model, Boxee is a portal to content providers.  This allows for most any of video content on the web to be accessed.

Rather than using a Home Theater PC (which you can do with the Boxee software) the Boxee Box makes the Boxee experience accessible to the average consumer who doesn’t want a full fledged PC, or the support headaches that come with it, next to their TV.

Because Boxee is as revolutionary as DVR was, not everyone just “gets it” the first time, which  is why Boxee partnered with Howcast to explain how to get started with Boxee.

The Boxee Remote is an innovative double sided RF device with a Qwerty Keyboard on one side and a multidirectional pointing device on the other.
