MSN Tv or Web Tv,is a name of a thin client which uses a television for display,and an online service that supports it.It was firstly produced by Microsoft,and taken to MSN.
The MSN Tv product is an adaptor that makes a TV set connected to the net,usually for web browsing and e-mails.The setup includes a web browser,wireless,and a connection to the internet.The concept was founded by Steve Perlman,as he saw a commercial that eneded by displaying the website for the company,he often recalls this as a Campbells Soup Advertisement.It occured that if the television audience were able by a device to augment television viewing with recieving infos through the Tv,then perhaps the web address could be a signal,and the television a conduit.
Since the device was a web browser,the cost of licensing an operating system could be avoided.The box feature such cutting edge technology and the smart card reader,neither of which ever caught on for Internet clients..
