Re: Poor performance killed connected tvs

all i was trying to indicate was that the bar was set terribly low from existing manufacturers.

Anyone could come in and do better than the existing manufacturers. That's how badly they've botched things.

You way overstated my Apple comment as they will barely have to do anything to make a better experience than what's out there now.

Botched connected TV maybe, but as a TV they work fine and are pretty understandable to all tech level users. Someone might take over the connected tv market, but I doubt it - it's an odd market niche as it is. Anyone who wants features pretty much wants a box they can change out more often than the TV as the features are changing pretty fast. I.e for a while Netflix was fine for video, but now there's hulu, amazon, maybe new ones around the corner. USB playback of avi was ok at one time, now you might want mkv ...

And on and on.
