Netflix is now available to internet-capable Sony BRAVIA HDTV sets. All it takes is applying the latest software update to your BRAVIA and you can now enjoy viewing your favorite movie titles from Netflix directly on your HDTV set. Netflix is an online Blu-ray disc and DVD rental service that also streams its movies at flat rates to customers in the US. It currently has a collection of more than 100,000 titles and its subscribers number to more or less 10 million. This development is definitely a good news for BRAVIA owners who have been waiting for this option for many months now.

I can’t help falling in love with digital TV boxes. All those features and that incredible image when combined with a proper plasma display… and when they come from big companies like Philips, things are sure to be even better.
Since the US is HDTV’s country, Philips’ Wireless HDTV Link will most certainly be a success. First, it provides 1080p HDTV picture quality, while still managing to look fantastic. It will replace all the annoying cables you had connected to the HD cable box, the DVD or Blu-Ray player and your PlayStation or Xbox (up to 4 devices can be connected) and has lots of ports (the HDMI is of the essence here, anyway). Everything for $ 799.
