You may have suspected that something was up after Viewsonic failed to meet its promised "early Q2" ship date for the
Boxee-powered TV it showed off at CES, and you would have suspected correctly.
GigaOM is now reporting that Viewsonic has indeed ditched its plans for the device, apparently due to a combination of high costs and a lack of interest in Smart TVs from customers. It is still keeping its options open for further down the road, however, noting that it will "stay involved with the various technology developments and consider them in the future as they become available."
