I agree - don't waste money on the devices when you can use your laptop with HDMI ports.
I originally bought a Google TV box so I could surf the web and watch streaming shows/video. It's gotten to the point that providers have blocked use of this device from streaming online media to no longer supporting the interface.
I have since purchased a laptop to do everything else. My roommate let's me use his parents cable provider login account to stream everything else (including the live Bruins game through nbcsports.com last week).
Needless to say I no longer have cable TV. We use Netflix & Hulu+ for shows we like to watch the day after it aired.
