Many people think GoogleTV is pointless, because they can't imagine throwing away their current TV (or blu-ray, or DVR) to buy one. That's not the point. The point is that it's a good feature to have, and soon enough it will be silly for you to buy a TV that can't do those same tricks. It's like a TV remote on old TVs. You probably wouldn't throw away your old TV just because it didn't have a remote. But when you bought your next TV for whatever reason, you probably wanted the one with the remote.
