Google is developing an entertainment device that requires testing outside the laboratory environment. The device is in the prototyping phase and will be modified prior to final compliance testing. … Users will connect their device to home WiFi networks and use Bluetooth to connect to other home electronics equipment. This line of testing will reveal real world engineering issues and reliability of networks. The device utilizes a standard WiFi/Bluetooth module, and the planned testing is not directed at evaluating the radio frequency characteristics of the module (which are known), but rather at the throughput and stability of the home WiFi networks that will support the device, as well as the basic functionality of the device. From this testing we hope to modify the design in order to maximize product robustness and user experience. Utilizing the requested number of units will allow testing of real world network performance and its impact on applications running on the device, so that any problems can be discovered and addressed promptly.

Google TV端末とは違うのかね?
検索機能付きの家庭用ストレージとかだったら興味があるんだが……

かもしれないし、違うかもしれない。
What is the mystery “entertainment device” Google is testing? — Tech News and Analysis [gigaom.com]によると、
自宅のWiFiネットワークに接続される謎の端末は、Bluetooth 経由で他の家電機器に接続するというもの。現時点では製品の堅牢性とユーザーエクスペリエンスを追求するためのテスト機器で、1月17日から半年間252の端末を使用することくらい。
それでもエンターテイメント機器と言われれば、 ストレージよりむしろ、Bluetooth がついたApple TV [apple.com]みたいなもののほうがしっくり来る。
モデレータは基本役立たずなの気にしてないよ
