Internet Comes To Your Idiot Box, And Cheap Too

Honey, I got some work to do… on the TV!

Simply get a set top box from LogicEastern and plug into your TV, and of course you need to have cable TV connection. With such a simple set up you are now geared to access the world through what was once called the idiot box.

The price tag is pretty neat too at just Rs.150 to 200 per month, and you can access Gmail, Facebook and Youtube right from your TV set. In the days to come no doubt other websites will be added to the service. What is cool is that the company plans to integrate a wireless keyboard so that you can switch between email and Youtube on the internet or watch Cricket (like normal TV). May be in the future you might even shop on the TV and complete an order on HomeShopping18! This concept or device will probably change your lifestyle.

Hey, do I still need my desktop?

With Google having come out with its Chrome browser and OS, and all the free apps in the cloud like spreadsheet and documents, free photos stored at Flickr and videos at Youtube, will you still need a desktop? If LogicEastern is going to give you Google Chrome browser access and you can go tap-tap-tap with your keyboard and access any website, the question of whether to own a desktop is for you to answer.
