The folks over at Boxee released some great information and pictures about the "soon to be released" Boxee box. Boxee has partnered with networking giant D-Link to build and develop the new set-top box.
On the Boxee blog, Andrew Kippen posted some nice pictures of the new hardware. Astro Studios created the design of the box, the same folks who worked on the Xbox 360. They hope to keep the cost of the box sub-$200 and it features a slew of ports (HDMI, SPDIF, USB, 802.11n/Ethernet, to name the biggies). It also seems to be quite petite (see pictures below using soda can for scale).
They expect the box to be released in quarter two of 2010. They also plan to announce more details at the Consumer Electronics Show in January.

So, will it support Hulu?
That is the decider for me. If it does, I'll buy it, otherwise, I'll build a $300 AMD PC that also functions as a standard PC.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of its unstackable design.

i think it looks f**kin' FANTASTIC, and didn't have any interest in one til now. (Been using W7MC)
the beauty of this thing is that it doesn't require stackability. what would you stack on it? a dvd player (it does netflix!)... a cable box (cancel that shit!)...
