The Logitech Revue was recently torndown and its inners revealed. Direct link to the higher resolution picture of the motherboard.
SemiAccurate has a populated board similar to the one in the Revue: http://www.semiaccurate.com/2010/06/04/gigabyte-has-google-tv-ready-motherboard/
Usage
Samsung K9F8G08U0M 1 GB NAND Flash
- Used for storage of bootloader, kernel, boot flash graphics, Linux OS etc..
Hynix H27UBG8T2ATR 4 GB NAND Flash (Long Term Storage)
- Used for persistent storage, device is /dev/sda - possible to override with an external USB drive
Microchip PIC24FJ64GA004-I/PT 16-bit microcontroller
- Used to handle IR input/output for remotes/IR blasters and possible interface with wireless keyboard
- System reboot/powerdown
- Possibly HDMI CEC
Silicon Image Sil9135 HDMI 1.3 Receiver
- Used to process video to and from HDMI ports as well as audio over HDMI and SPDIF
- Supports DTS even though the Revue does not (An update can probably enable this feature)
IDT ICS9LPRS525AGLF Clock for CPU
- Provides a clock for the Intel Atom CPU
Update Procedure
Place new update labeled "update.zip" on a USB drive, with a single partition (ie, 1st partition on a USB disk, so say "/dev/sdc1")
Insert into Revue in the Right most USB port (if looking at the back, closest to the power jack)
Boot into recovery mode: (confirm?)
- Hold the Sync button while plugging in the Revue, keep it held, at the same time hold Menu+L on the keyboard.
- Box will reboot, continue to hold Sync button, then hold Alt+L (or mash, your choice), and it should then enter recovery mode.
- You can then update the box, with a newer update. Downgrading fails however due to a date check.

Serial Output
The logitech revue board contains a UART1 port on the front of the board which before receiving the boxes initial updates is active. In order to communicate with UART port you will need a USB to TTL adapter (or board that does a similar conversion).
The pins operate at 3.3v and the port at 9600 baud with the following pinout:

PIC Access
- There is a standard PIC access port to the right of the UART1 port. It can be accessed via a standard PIC Kit Debug board (Tested with version 2). The port has read/write access but the code is pulled from the chip as .hex file and is unreadable thus far.
- The pinout starting from the left (pin with white square around it) corresponds to pin 1 or Vpp.The remaining pins follow the same layout. PIC Pinout

Updates
The updates contain a subset of update files, a boot.img and a recovery.img
boot.img
The thread at xda-developer has the process to extract from the .img files (thx bftb0):
"the "boot.img" file is in (little-endian) "squashfs" format and unpacks just fine using "unsquashfs" from the (Ubuntu 8.0.04 LTS) squashfs-tools package."
recovery.img
system/boot/recovery.img is a standard Android boot image with some extra garbage (0x580 bytes) at the front. Remove it like so:
dd if=system/boot/recovery.img bs=1408 skip=1 > recovery-ungarbaged.img
Unpack that like a normal Android boot image. Something like this Perl script works well.
The kernel (system/boot/kernel) is also a boot image with the same extra garbage at the front.
Odex files
The .odex files can be extracted by using the following guide Deodex Instructions
