<<<Then why did Microsoft buy WebTV if there is no market in TV Internet browsing? Sure, it is not as powerfull as PC Internet, but it is here and Microsoft proved it. >>> Look at sales of WebTV. They sux. They are likely the most entrenched (please correct me if you have statistics), of the players in that group (Wink, Cablesoft, WorldGate), and yet they sure as heck arent seeing huge increases in sales. But PC's? Everybody's getting one. Lots have them and the numbers of households without PC's is shrinking real real quick. PC internet use in households is growing 80% compounded every year according to a study I posted from several days ago. Predicted to grow faster with the sub $1,000 PC's on sale now. So will PC Internet become defacto before TV Internet has a chance? Who knows, but the growth numbers I've seen so far lean toward PC Internet IMO.
