High-res
Want #1 this morning. Though I do wonder how cramped it is — The Verge post is more of a press release, no hands-on time.
Howdy, I'm MG Siegler. I’m a general partner at Google Ventures and a columnist for TechCrunch. This is where I collect things.
Some selected works. Some haikus. Some investments. Ask away.

Ouch.
I seem to recall all the bigwigs of the companies launching Google TV products going on and on about how great it would be. The future was here. It was just a year ago.
I recall having other thoughts.
I actually had a Revue here at my apartment. A demo unit. It was never been taken out of the box. Not once. Not even to try it out. I don’t mean that to be snarky. It’s just the truth. And it says a lot.
Darren Murph:
It should probably be noted that wasn’t about returns from end users, which the company claims “have averaged at levels comparable to other Logitech products”, but from the distributors and retailers it sells most of its hardware to.
Oh, okay, that’s much better. It’s not users returning the devices in massive numbers, but perhaps only because they were never buying them in the first place.
Instead, the distributors and retailers beat them to the punch.
Down from $22 million the previous quarter. They missed device sales estimates by 70 percent.
Ouch.
