Is Neuros working on Neuros TV Unfiltered?
It looks like Neuros might be set to expand its media-happy product line a bit further, at least according to an anonymous tipster who claims to have participated in a survey for the hereto unheard of Neuros TV Unfiltered. While details are pretty light, the set-top box apparently "wraps" traditional TV programming with links to related videos and information pulled off the Internet, along with links to other popular videos. Somewhat interestingly, Neuros also reportedly asked participants if they had heard of Sonos, Slingbox, Apple TV, Squeezebox, or BitTorrent, which could give some indication as to how the company might be positioning the box. Unfortunately, that's about all Neuros seems to have divulged, although it certainly seems to be a bit more than just a rough concept.

This isn't their only new product they're email surveys out for. Sorry, didn't sang any of the pictures when I took the survey earlier.
They also had one based around music instead of video. It has an optional LCD remote which looked pretty nice which they revealed towards the end of the survey and said 'does this increase your interested in the product'. I voted hell yes - it was a very cool remote with a full qwerty keyboard and a large LCD.

You weren't supposed to reveal anything from the survey. ;)

Yeah... you agreed to that in the first screen of the survey - like I did. :)

Wow, I took the survey, and unless the surveys are different, this is not the product description.
Makes me trust Engaget a little less now...

There actually was an NDA on the first page:

It was really primarily because these were "concepts" and not ironed out products...
