TV
17 Sunday June 2007 Filed in: Apple
My father (soon 84 years of age) just bougth an TV
to complement the big Samsung flat screen TV he has
had for some months now. He has said that to make
the flat screen usable he must be able to move his
pictures from his computer to the TV wireless. At
first I did not think this would be such a hit, but
now after installing it for him I have changed my
mind a bit. Well to see his photos of all the stuff
he does in the workshop/garage in the daytime at
the big 42 inc flat screen was nice, also the
screen saving feature where the pictures floats
around in 3d is quit impressing.
Also the fact that here in Sweden we don't have that much content to buy from iTunes Music Store made me doubt that the TV would be any hit. But I have change my mind. Even if we cant buy TV shows and movies here like in the States there is something called Podcasts that lights our screens. After been downloading and subscribing content from the swedish broadcasting company SVT both me and my father was happy to see that this little flat box is certainly making itself useful. ow my father can work in his workshop and still be able to watch new, weather and nature programs even if he is not in front of the tube when they go live.
The setup was easier than even most Apple stuff and way ahead of anything coming from the shops that sells TV,video, phones. Choose language and airport and you are running. Nice.
I think that when there is an TV with DVD/BlueRay disc burner I will buy one.
