www.msntv.comA lot of people have been asking what webtv/msntv is. So I thought that I would put this up. Here is a brief overview of it. -A box that you connect to any ordinary television -You use a WIRELESS keyboard to naviate across the internet, it has a highlight box that goes around whatever your focused on, you use the arrow keys to get around -No Mouse -You can only have one window open at a time -You cannot download ANYTHING pretty much -You can have no programs, not even paint! -Its VERY Slow -You get MSN Messenger but thats it -Comes premade with a search engine -Comes premade with an e-mail adress for you -When you go into the msn chat room it says "Guest" -On Proboards it messes up ALL of the time, usually when I click on a topic it completley restarts itself -Very noisey when cutting it off -If you don't like the keyboard you can use a wierd type of remote -Webtv is only good on a bigscreen Television -Cannot see lots of images such as .bmp If you have any other questions feel free to ask

I saw that on TV the other day. It looked...interesting... but they said it was for people who weren't smart enough to use a real Seriously They said that you can browse the internet on your own TV if you don't know how to use it on a real computer

Or the other way around. There were about 3 or 4 different companies that offered the same service, and they were all older than MSN TV. I think that MSN is the only service that offers a TV based service anymore... (In the US anyway)

I don't know if they still offer it. but aol used to have the same thing. except it was AOLTv or something like that.. I have a cousin who used to have a webtv and I would use it at her house when I was there. For those of you who think there's nothing worse then dial up. you've obviously never used webtv...Basically all hers was good for was to create several different email addresse's in minutes to scam free phone cards from phonehog.. Other then that chatroom were about the only thing worth doing on them.. Now I guess with Msntv 2 you'll have an eithernet port so you can use your own broadband connection if you have one.. I'm sure there will be a fee of course..

I had a newer version of MSNTv but then it broke so my grandmother game me her old Webtv. I just use it for Proboards and Gamefaqs. Most of the time it messes up with Proboards. That is why I cannot have a forum of my own. I am great at managing them but I cannot do Graphics at all. But I am trying to learn to code
