When manufacturers reduce the cost and thickness of modern LCDS they will be huge demand for Internet, email and other basic computer functionality. The day of just watching TV on your television is coming to an end.
I’ve had a computer connected to my TV for about 4 years and will never be going back to regular TV again. I prefer to watch my media through the computer interface because it offers me the chance to pause, and flip between checking emails, surf the web, and everything else a modern computer can do. Why limit yourself to just a TV when you could have so much more?
The main stumbling block is a suitable input device. Although the wireless keyboard and mouse if fine for the odd use, it’s uncomfortable if used for too long. Perhaps laser projected keyboards perhaps touch screen with window wipers to clear the smudges?
It would be a shame to wait for voice recognition, because that may take a long time.
