We didn't doubt the reality of Netgear's NeoTV PRIME (GTV100) Google TV box after the candid shots of it [we saw last month](http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/02/netgear-neotv-prime-gtv100-googletv-fcc/), but as expected, the company has chosen to make it official at [CES](http://www.engadget.com/tag/ces2013). In addition to providing access to your favorite on-demand streaming services, just like the standard, PRO and MAX [NeoTV models](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/20/netgear-push2tv-neotv/), the PRIME adds all the Google goodies -- live TV, the Chrome browser (Flash supported), [Primetime](http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/14/google-tv-voice-search-primetime-quick-guide/), full access to the Play store and, of course, search. It's also DLNA compatible and, with the pre-installed aVia app, can [push media](http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/13/youtube-android-app-one-click-gtv-video/) to your TV from USB drives and other storage sources hooked up to the same network, including Android devices. The PRIME is available from today for a cent under $130, making it less than [Sony's Google box](http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/26/sony-nsz-gs7-google-tv-review/), and $30 more than [Vizio's](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/19/vizio-co-star-review/). Hopefully, a decent dual-sided remote will justify that extra $30 (we didn't like Vizio's attempt), but if you'd rather use your phone or tablet, a remote control app is available for anything running iOS or Android, too.
