we are very excited and anxious to hear your feedback. boxee is now faster, stronger. there is more work for us to get done before we feel we could call it beta, but we are getting closer. message us on Twitter, comment on this blog, post in our forum. tell us what you think. we’ll listen and go work on the next version based on what you tell us.
