I know Valve has scrapped the "Steam Box" or whatever Big Picture based device they were working on, but I've always felt that a company like nVidia really needed to partner with Valve on the device and make a solid $500 price point box that could download and play Steam games at a reasonable level with a controller.
Sadly, most consoles make their profit from disc sales rather than hardware, so this is very unlikely.
