Anyone know what'll be included with this? I tell people that use my server to use it with a Roku since that usually gives the best experience on a TV.

Nice, I switched the main TV to Google TV, but my other den TV still has a Roku client, can't wait to see how this works on it.

For me I love the Roku client, but the lack of support for embedded subtitles was killing me for my local rips :(
