Want the Internet on your TV? It’s perfectly possible, and the Associated Press has joined with Intel’s Widget Channel to demonstrate it at CES.
The news ticker scrolls across the bottom of the television screen and the television viewer chooses which categories of headlines are of most interest, including breaking top news, local updates, business and finance, sports, entertainment and more.
Comcast and Intel are demonstrating the capability of viewers to enjoy Internet services while watching cable TV by integrating the Widget Channel with the Comcast Interactive Program Guide using tru2way technology, a Java-based platform with open API specifications built into televisions, set-top boxes and other devices.
