myRegza TV, by Toshiba can do this and more : the TV has 2 LAN jacks on the back with access to features like: 1 = Activila , video on demand, weather, shopping, news etc 2 = Hikari TV (hikari = light/fiber optic in Japanese) , 12mbps full 1080 streaming pay TV, 70 chanels at the moment, more coming 3 = Netfront Web browser, internet on the TV
all direct from the TV, no need for additional boxes and crap.
also can use USB memory sticks and HDD via the USB port, or LAN based Hard disks via another LAN jack (some models have internal HDD like the LG and Samsung)
Toshiba recommends connect the TV to the net via fiber optic, which is pretty standard in Japan now, with most areas able to get 50 - 100Mbit and option for 150Mbit - 1Gbps from some providers
so take a seat sony, and watch the others do something right :)
