A little more WebTV information: RCA to sell WebTV receivers Compiled by CBS MarketWatch INDIANAPOLIS (CBS.MW) -- RCA will begin selling WebTV receivers this fall, but executives said they will delay until next year the rollout of a TV with built-in WebTV capabilities. With a built-in, all-in-one product, RCA hoped to leapfrog Philips Electronics NV (PHG: news, msgs)of the Netherlands and Japan's Sony Corp. (SNE: news, msgs), the leading makers of WebTV receivers, in the business of connecting televisions to the Internet. Instead, RCA, a unit of Thomson Multimedia SA of France, will offer a stand-alone WebTV Plus receiver for $249. RCA executives said they decided to wait until after Microsoft (MSFT: news, msgs), owner of the WebTV technology, finishes an overhaul of WebTV's technical structure so that it can be based on Microsoft's Windows CE operating system. A spokeswoman for Microsoft said the change, expected to be completed late this year, will permit the newer, WebTV Plus devices to be upgraded to a future version of Windows CE with interactive TV-oriented features. Today, Windows CE is primarily used to perform the basic functions in pocket-size computers. Teflon
