Sony's Internet TV (powered by Google TV) first hands-on! (update: video)


We have taken just our unworthy eyes to the new Sony Internet TV, powered by Google TV (boy is that a mouthful) and it looks exactly the right kind of modern. We have to play a quick chance with the remote control and it definitely appeals to the nerd in uns--keep nice and use, although the optical mouse pad in the upper right corner was pretty shaky on the we tried units. (Sony chalk it up to RF interference, but we need to investigate further.) We will update you with some video so stay tuned!

Update: The video is up. Plus we have some thoughts for you double your pleasure: it's interesting how the user interface between the different TV sizes skaliert-- which sees search bar funny big on the larger TV sizes and just about right onto the medium sizes.While don't have to switch inputs, such as Sony and Google are so proud to say that there would be a clear resolution switch which app UI durchmacht-TV between live TV and the Google TV - 1080i, 720 p our guess.Something could be a real problem for Google TV is the lack of UI consistency. You are dealing with your DVR's UI, the Google search app maybe of TV search and record experience, the chrome browsing experience, and then independent user interface of a certain media (all the ones we were tempted considerably). You can also search, your recorded shows Google TV interface or your own DVRS from the UI that could among other overlapping functions as confusing if it not convenient.The image-in-picture feature, which is a simple right click is on the right d-pad to be likely a well worn option for TV users-while a show going live, something look up in the browser or in an app bread sort of this computer and butter is, and it's pretty easy to werden.der Sony keyboard feels remotely nicely in your hand, but it's pretty intuitive. Although of course position two thumbs up to the controls, thou shalt not, to use you at the same time - you can either under your right arrow the UI with the left thumb or control of the mouse with finicky optical pad.The two things on the right button are completely separated so that you use the arrows and accidentally click End Select, what always under the mouse pointer and one other way is totally geht.Es strange, especially since it's supposed to feel like a PS3 controller-a controller that typically used the two thumb controls together very effectively.Oh, and there are a million tiny buttons for everything all in any configuration make a ton of sense and some of them just total are mysterious - there no way you are going to get to do what the stars and fn keys right off the bat.
