SL>WEBTV TO LAUNCH BY SEPTEMBER
SL>WebTV, a Silicon Valley start-up company, has teamed with big guns Sony
SL>Electronics and Philips Consumer Electronics to build a TV Web browser
SL>that's op
SK> erated by a simple remote control with arrow and scroll buttons.
This type of device is going to be a big time flop. The resolution
of a TV set is simply not good enough to display screen images from
Internet Web browsers. Even on a typical 14" VGA monitor, some of
the text displayed on a web page is barely legible. The consumer
will be disappointed with the crummy display, and they'll either
not get involved at all with the Internet (good!) or they'll get
PCs.
