Satellite TV On Internet

bwone.com twitter.com Now that we have the Sony Internet TV Player unboxing out of the way, its now time to do a quick tour around the hardware of the Sony Internet TV Player…. with Google TV of course! Hardware The unit is built with the usually high quality that Sony is known for and its actually a bit heavier that it looks but that’s due to the Blu-Ray player that comes with the unit. The casing is made of all plastic that is white with a black top that looks to be a fingerprint and dust magnet. On the front is what you usually see with anything that has a disc player in it with a slot loading disc loader, power button, eject button, connect button to connect the remote and USB port to plug in devices you want to use with the player to watch media. There is nothing on either of the sides on the player but on the back is where are port fun begins with the IR Blaster port, HDMI in, Digital Out Optical, HDMI Out, LAN, fan exhaust, 3 USB ports and DC in jack for your power.

The review is long (20 mins) because I go through each of the operations that were important to me. I shot video of my TV while using the Sony Internet TV. There are also a few still shots of the device and remote. Hopefully this overview will help you make a purchase decision. I complete love this Sony device and the Google TV application / OS. I paid for the device with my own money. The reason I leaned toward the Sony (9) rather than the Logitech Revue (9) is for a couple reasons: (a) I don’t have a blu-ray player, so for 0 I get a blu-ray player, (b) I wanted a small remote, not a keyboard (the Logitech comes with a small keyboard, and you pay 9 for a small remote), (c) I’ve had great past …
