I love to find a TV that can run Silverlight applications.

Most TVs with Ethernet or wireless do *NOT* support arbitrary web browsing. While much of what they do is browser-based, it's all locked up inside a proprietary framework you can't modify. So a given TV might do Netflix, Vudu, Pandora, and YouTube, but it won't be able to do anything else (unless the mfg updates the firmware). The notable exception I'm aware of are the "Google TV" TVs. Sony makes some, but the sizes are limited. This is likely to change in the future, but it's not here yet. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
