Summary Logitech has pulled the plug on Google TV set-top boxes.

Google TV or the child of Google TV or the grandchild of Google TV will happen, said Guerrino De Luca, the chairman and acting chief executive of the Swiss computer peripherals maker.The integration of television and the Internet is inevitable, De Luca said at an event for analysts and investors held in New York on Wednesday. But the idea that it would happen overnight in Christmas 2010 was very misguided.Google TV is a great concept, he said. Google TV has the potential to completely disrupt the living room.Except that was not the case when we launched Logitech Revue.Google and Logitech unveiled the Logitech Revue set-top box in October of last year with the then Logitech chief executive promising it would help redefine the user experience in the digital living room.
