HP to bring WiFi-enabled LCD TVs to market in 2006

Now that everything from cameras to MP3 players comes with built-in WiFi, it's no surprise to learn that televisions are the next great wireless frontier. HP is getting in on the game with a 37-inch, WiFi-enabled LCD set to be released next year. Besides being able to stream content from a PC (and acting as a Windows Media Center Extender), this unit will also record video via a built-in DVR. A new HP-designed interface (to be integrated into all future HP consumer electronics products) promises simple control of all functions by even the most technophobic user — we'll see how that plays out!
