Google's TV says..............Google's TV isn't for everyone, especially if you're in Canada
'Smart TV' comes to the U.S. this fall, but won't reach across the border until next year

Jadoo TV is crap. Quality is garbage and the box itself sucks. Their HD is a joke. If your sole purpose to buy that is to watch cricket matches, I think you are better off finding them online and stream the matches live. You will most likely get the same quality, if not better, than Jadoo TV.

You have to subscribe to the channels on Jadoo TV. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. It all depends. Most of my buddies watch matches on Jadoo tv without a problem, if that is what your looking for. But for around $200 for that garbage, it's just not worth it.

I don't think Netflix will help you at all for watching cricket. Netflix is GREAT, but not for what you are looking for.

Also, espn3.com shows some matches live at time. They are free but the catch is that you need to be with a specific internet provider to view them for free.

Hey Guys - I just bought Jadoo in UK for 200£. I read all these postings and was a bit sceptical.

My Setup is 37" Hanspree LCD 1080 support. Virgin Cable internet 10 MBPS pipe; Hooked wired with the Jadoo box.

After registering my Jadoo box. I turned it on using the HDMI cable and the initial screen was lush. It auto picked up my Tele resolution at 720 which i changed by going into the settings and set it up to 1080P.

Now i basically bought it for watching cricket matches and some Pakistani news channels.

The question regarding the quality of picture is main question here and i can confirm on my 37" lcd the picture on some channels were pixelated SD quality and a bit low then what i get on my sky box. BUT it is respectable and if you are willing to adjust its worth a deal. I had some streching issues also with picture as it wouldn't strech fully on my telly so i would guess on 32" the picture would look much better.

Apart from these channels few looked really good similar to sky box.

The other thing i would like to mention is although i had 10 Mbps connection as described by Virgin , its a shared pipe and the maximum i got out of it was 2.5 which was sufficent for Jadoo streaming.

Coming to the other aspects of the box is the ability to play your own media through USB or a media server. I have some high Def movies on my external USB and after attaching it i played few of them; The box handled it nicely and the picture was crisp. So ther is an added advantage. The box also conatins few menus to play indian and pakistani shows/dramas etc but they are just linked to youtube and runs just fine.

i can write a lot but the bottom line is its a worthy kit. If you are willing to spend some money and not too concious about picture quality then its a good deal.

PS: I have just used it for a day so cant comment on the durability. I hope it will be helpful in making a decision.
