Smart TV

tankee:
The feature is not new, has been around for quite a few years.
Basically, using the TV as a monitor
The more recent feature is to stream your PC display and sound to your TV, another word, PC is not directly connected to the TV but via a home network. This also been around for a few years but more common now

I notice the newer TV models can be connected to a PC via USB cable. Does it mean we can view a Microsoft office program like Word/Powerpt/Excel on the TV screen too?
USB or HDMI?? -

Wow - Amazing ! I went to Youtube to see how this works and I must say this is definitely the way forward.

yes, that's true. the Galaxy tab only acts as a 'remote control'.
I have a Samsung smart tv.. but the streaming is still not fantastic if using wifi. Mine is 16mbps.. waiting to upgrade my broadband to fibre.. hopefully it will be better.
Tried connecting direct using ethernet also.. but somehow the internet connection can't work using Ethernet cables, no time to explore yet

connect you notebook/pc to your current LCD/Plasma TV…
performance is better than S…TV…, because of faster CPU…
don’t need to get those high end model… -
I just bought an Android TV Box. It's just like using a 'tab' on ordinary TV with HDMI input. It's quite fun and useful to certain extend. Still trying to get a suitable camera to use Skype on it.

Hi
In the window 8 software there is a function which allow parents to set the time limit and time slot for the child to use pc. Does anyone know is there any TV model has this kind of function to limit the child watching too much of TV programme. So far I know only have password lock for access to TV but does not have time slot setting. -

A rather rudimentary solution may be to use to timer-based main switch. Program it to turn on the power only in the evening.
