The Cosmonauts

These days everybody seems to be crazy about building iPhone apps, but what if I told you that you could do widgets and small apps for Sony Bravia TV sets. It’s true. Apparently recent models fo these TV sets come with a small OS that can handle small apps (1,3 Mb max.) such as widgets for weather, time, RSS and even webbrowisng if connected to the internet through its ethernet port.

Sony Japan has released a Bravia App SDK for those developer interested in bringing interaction to the TV. Most of the info seems to be in Japanese, though. I wish they opened it to the rest of the world so we could build a light TV version of Planetaki :)
