The Unanswered Questions About Google TV

“Murphy was in the room when Google unveiled its Google TV platform at its I/O developer conference today. The demo was plagued with numerous problems, with remote controls losing sync and questionable content showing up on the TV feeds used to demonstrate Google TVs integration of the Web and the TV. Those snags turned the keynote, which was also used for a much smoother presentation of the new Android 2.2 version, into a three-hour long marathon session, and Best Buy’s CEO Brian Dunn had a hard time sounding convincing when he said he wanted a Google TV device “right now.”

Google is amazing, no doubt about it. I am writing this blog on a Google blog; my email is on Google, as well as my calendar; 2 weeks ago I bought the newest Droid phone. If Google isn’t the prophetic Big Brother, He’ll do until the real BB shows up.

My Droid is amazing; the things it can do are astounding. I can touch “Car Home” on the screen; touch “Navigation”; touch the microphone and say, “McDonald’s” and the town I’m in and it will instantly lead me there by the hand. It will, with the appropriate applications, wake me up, keep my appointments close at hand, and beep when it’s time to close. It will play Three Stooges phrases when my brother who never grew up calls. It plays TV, it plays Music, and it shows me email, and facebook and my favorite weather channel. It can do anything….except be audible.

Female voices are great, but anyone with a touch more testosterone Marion Jones cannot be heard on this phone. The low pitches always sound as if they are making automated noises rather than a man’s voice.

Didn’t they test this thing with guys? I know I’m not the only one cause the customer service lady admitted that this is a regularly complained about issue. I know technology must make advances every 15 minutes so we all get to be famous before we die, but could I please use my phone the old fashion way too? Let me speak, and don’t force me to do the Frank Valley & the 4 seasons version of “Big Girls Don’t Cry” every time I am on the droid.
