Google TV

     According to this article, Sony is releasing their newest line of TVs, which use the Google TV software. The Internet HDTVs come with four USB ports, four HDMI inputs and Wi-Fi. The smallest the model, the 24", costs $599 whereas the largest, the 46" costs $1,399.
    
     The Internet TV software carries Hulu, Twitter, Netflix, YouTube, Pandora, search capabilities and some Android apps. Web browsing on the TV is powered by Google Chrome and the apps are powered by Android OS.
    
     The main intent of the new TV is to integrate the web with existing cable or satellite TV in order to make it easier to search for favorite TV shows and websites at the same time. Google seems to spreading its success past the Internet world and into living rooms. The TVs are for sale on SonyStyle.com starting this Saturday and in Best Buy stores Sunday.


If the TV itself doesn't seem complex enough, take a look at the remote needed to operate it.
