been hearing a lot about this from some of my co-workers..looks to be pretty interesting...
anyone else using it?
I've been pretty happy so far with just our apple-tv...and i'm a bit reluctant to have my wife have to figure out a new UI at this point (took her a while to get over us cutting cable) but as i said, this looks pretty neat....

You can get pretty much anything on it as long as you install the right plugins.
That being said, tracking down streams is still a bit of a crapshoot. If you want to watch the latest GoT or something, you'll quickly get used to checking multiple links on Navi-X, Icefilms or 1channel before you find one that works.
Live sports again are provided by feeds and it's a bit of a crapshoot as well.
All that said, your options for content are way more wide open than on Apple TV. I routinely run XBMC on my laptop then AirPlay it over to Apple TV. Works decent.
