Those who has a TV at home, probably deploys a set top box of some kind, again probably having a satellite dish, DVB-T tuner or such. It even starts to become messy as you buy one of those D-Smart, Digiturk, DivX player all at one place, scattered around your (already messy) living room.

Now VESTEL is introducing another concept - all-in-one TV which includes a Linux base set top box device. It can connect to internet, letting you read e-mails, watch YouTube videos, login to Flickr, read your e-mails, read USB disks/flash disks and even login to UPNP devices online via wired/wireless network. This is a new, innovative concept when it comes to merging TV and STB, without the hassle to connect yet another device to your TV. 

What is more, all these things run on Linux, and everything you see on the screen from ground up is coded with a bunch of talented coders in Istanbul. The project is becoming a lot entertaining since it introduces new and very challenging issues which need to be solved. 

Those who wish to have a try a demo, just wave to VESTEL booth during Cebit 2007 between 2-7 October, 2007.
