I see that Google TV, inside Sony, has a Chrome browser.
Is the same thing possible inside Vizio, or Samsung, or any other TV? The 42" Vizio is $499 at Costco, and the Sony with Google TV is $999.
We're looking at a buch of these TV's that have build in Wi-Fi, to place around the office as Big Dashboards, and I don't want to have a computer attached to get web content on the screen. It's my understanding that both Samsung Apps, and Vizio Apps, use Yahoo Widgets as their ap engine.
Anyone know of a way to get a full screen browser going, without attaching a computer?
We thought of attaching an Apple TV, which can be jailbroken, but that is just another piece of equipment to lose, break, etc.
Thank you!
