The Boxee Bata was unveiled last night in New York. I have to say it looks slick. I know we were promised improvements in the UI, but it looks completely different. I can't wait to get my hands on the beta and give it a test run.

Also unveiled was the new Boxee Box by D-Link. Specs for the box were sketchy except to say that it will include HDMI, WiFi, Optical Audio, Ethernet, RC Audio, 2 USB, SD Cart Slot, RF Remote. We have been promised a live demo of the box at CES in January. The Boxee Box is due to go on sale Q2 2010.

Videos from the event are available on livestream. There are screenshots of the beta on the Boxee Blog and Boxee.tv has got a revamp which includes pics of the Boxee Box.
