WhereverTV Set-Top Box Launched - Over 2,000 Channels of International Programming
As streaming set-top boxes continue to hit the markets, we're glad to see some boxes that link to free content starting to arrive. Recently the WhereverTV Receiver was debuted at the SINO Consumer Electronics show in Qingdao, China. The box streams channels from the Wherever.TV website. According to BetaNews.com:
Content that can be watched on Wherever.tv, which consists of simulcasted regional stations and broadband-exclusive TV channels, can be watched through the WhereverTV receiver with just a high speed connection and a television.
The $199 receiver is similar to the Neuros OSD digital archiving box in both design and onboard hardware, but offers WhereverTV's exclusive Global Interactive Program Guide (IPG) to manage and browse the thousands of channels the service handles. No additional fees are incurred for usage, and the unit offers a simple way to access content from 94 countries in 43 languages on any television. Premium content can also be accessed in real time, at an additional cost to the user.
Pretty cool! With all of the content Wherever.TV offers, $199 isn't too bad for the WhereverTV receiver. We'll try to get a box and let you know what we think.
