Actually there are alternatives. in terms of operating systems there is TinyOS and contiki. in terms of hardware standards the famous ZigBee standard and intel Galileo systems are also aimed for home automation and internet of things.

However, the Google implementation will be an opensource environment, basically you can implement it on any hardware as long as it fits the bill of Brillo. with the power of Google search engine and services this might turn to something really huge.

My Concern is how private the end user will be??? and that is a big one.

But of course the likes of Google and apple might not be too happy to see it succeed.
