Picked up a Fire TV last weekend to replace my loyal but aging Boxee Box.

Love it. XBMC streams flawlessly. Emulators work very well. Access to Amazon Instant Video (remastered ST:TNG!) and Hulu Plus is very nice, something I didn't have with the Boxee.

Would recommend.

edit: also, those having trouble with XBMC streaming, try using NFS instead of SMB. It's a way more efficient protocol. Hannewin NFS is a good server for Windows. It takes a little configuration but there are a ton of tutorials for it.
