The folks at Boxee say they’re planning their own hardware: the Boxee Box. They’ll share more details at a media event on Dec. 7.
“We launched our public alpha for Mac/Linux in January at CES. During the show we met with several device manufactures interested in embedding Boxee into their existing devices or building a dedicated Boxee device,” the company says. “I am very happy to announce we have signed our first partnership with a CE company. At this point we can not say more about the partner or the specs of the device, but we can tell you we are working closely with them to make sure we deliver a great Boxee experience on it.”
Boxee provides cross-platform, freeware media center software with a 10-foot user interface and social networking features designed for the living-room. It’s still under development and is currently only available as alpha releases for Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux,, as well as the Apple TV.
