Probably couldn't keep the price point at $99 with the K-1, and may not be able to meet the launch schedule.

I am hopping for a 10/100/1000 ethernet enabled Android TV box since all the cheaper chinese made stuff seem to have 1gbE on the ethernet ports.
I'm really happy for you that your new house will be completely wired. Personally, I do prefer wired and have my whole house wired with CAT 6, Four 4 port GbE routers and One 8 port GbE
But I don't see what that has to do with the Nexus Player. Having a GbE port on a Android box is like putting lipstick on a pig, you don't need it. If you were coping files to/from the box then maybe, but it's not needed just to stream. The max stream size for a BD is 48Mbps (bits not bytes) and you can do that over 10/100.
