Google TV gets an icon, launch still on schedule for fall according to Dish

If you're following the Google TV Team twitter account, (and of course you are right? They're on the list) you may have noticed a new icon popping up yesterday, which apparently will be the signifier for its new offering going forward. The TV with colored boxes doesn't quite have the charm of Android's (often skateboarding) robot, but whatever, we're more concerned about its potential integration with conventional video sources and what apps we'll see at launch. Speaking of, GTVHub points out Logitech has continued to hype its Revue box with a "Host with the Most" competition offering to move product advocates to NY or LA, while Dish Network mentioned on its recent earnings call that things are on track, with launch "a couple of months away." Good to know.

Is it going to be installed to Dish Network DVR's (I guess the 922 has the most horsepower for it)?

I'm sorry, but that's just ugly.

@Lexis yes, but you'll get used to it like every other google icon because you'll see it all the time...

Seems really awkward...why are there more green blocks?

@OneHungFeller
