It occurred to me there may be an icon on the console ??

And what if you chose to answer and email ........how

Or am i jumping the gun and you are actually not able to via your smart tv ??

I think some of them actually have apps that you can use on your smart phone/tablet. I know that with my Sony we have only used the remote control and it is pretty clunky.

A recent trip to Jbhi showed there were many 'usbtv' options as well, anyone doing this option ?

Even the young ones who work in the industry don't get it. Convergence may be the next big thing at least it will be in the States. Apple TV Google TV etc etc its been around for a decade its just the networks who are shitting themselves and have the power to slow it down as they are stuffed when it happens. For anyone who cares to learn read about the owners of Channel 9 and why the deal is a private equity disaster. Yawn And this is not a dig at you spacey for asking the question as its an interesting topic. It frustrates me when the young Don't get IT

At the age of 47 i don't consider it a dig at me

Basically as the owner of such names as streammovies/tv and gameconsoles/tv giftchannel/tv i am just interested to see the adoption of this technology by people involved in the internet as i think they would be more likely to take all these transitions on board perhaps faster than other industries

Hope this gives a bit more insight. I have no doubt we'll all be buying them online by then (maybe)

Yes the introduction of 'apps' via smart tv is another aspect to an exciting future

There are a truck load of applications. I am happy to recommend the Samsung Smart TVs. I have also heard great things about the Sony Smart TVs

+1 - it's a pain using the remote but it is handy for skype etc... I'm not convinced the Samsung appstore is going to boom but still very cool having the bluray player and tv on auto software update.

After staring at the 55" LED for 6 months I can't look at normal television anymore - there's no turning back now haha!
