Nothing, I simple use my TV to watch to the TV-programs

And yes my PS3 is connected to the internet (and also the TV ofcourse), but only for the 'multiplayer' part of the games (and the fact that build-in ps3 browser is the slowest browser ever to be in existence, certainly doesn't help it's case )

TV is for watching tv and for gaming and not to get annoyed by everyone online at facebook

Since I have no TV I don't need it, but I can see that it is quite a great feature indeed.

I've been requesting for Opera Mini video streamer and look now, I can't watch this video. I don't know what to say cos haven't watched the vid... Otherwise I support Opera Software in anyway they go to change the face of internet surfing:)

I liked the intro of the Opera's Dynamic Duo: Aleksander and Espen

I would like to install applications easily on any TV in the same way we do today with smartphones

And of course Opera available to all TV, no matter brand, manufacturer or OS

That would be It would be nice to have option to check some Web sites on TV, like weather, news etc. What hardware do one need except the mentioned PS3?

Finding "TV Store" to be ordinary, I have come up with alternative suggestions.
Using e,i,n,o,w as prefixes and zone and conex as suffixes these are the possibilities:
e-zone, i-zone, n-zone, o-zone, w-zone, and e-conex, i-conex, n-conex, o-conex, w-conex
where e = electronic, i = internet, n = network, o = opera or open, w = web or world.
