(From Cynopsis)
SONY, SHARP and PANASONIC are beginning to introduce high-end televisions that allow viewers to browse works from YOUTUBE and other online publishers when plugged into a broadband connection.
The technology was on display at this year's CONSUMER ELECTRONICS SHOW (CES).
• SONY is first to the punch with the BRAVIA INTERNET VIDEO LINK, which takes the form of a wireless module that plugs into the back of most 2007 and 2008 Bravia LCD TVs. Channels at launch include YouTube, CBS.com, Yahoo!, AOL, Sports Illustrated, blip.tv, CondeNet's Style.com, Men.Style.com, Epicurious and Concierge.com channels, Crackle, The Minisode Network, FEARnet, Ford Models, SingingFool and Video Detective
• PANASONIC's VIERACAST, available on 800-series Viera models, provides access to YouTube, Weather Channel sites, Bloomberg text-based news and photo sharing site Picasa without a separate device
• SHARP's AQUOS NET TVs, which also don't require a device, provide configurable widgets that update viewers on weather, NASDAQ stock quotes, traffic and comic strips.
