support for wireless keyboards & mice is needed
I have a Sony Blu-Ray smart box that adapts my Samsung HDTV into a "Smart TV" much as the article describes.
What I have found from sad experience is that support for a keyboard or better yet both a keyboard and mouse are needed. Sony uses the remote control to have the user move a cursor to s.l.o.w.l.y type in information. Needless to say, it is a big pain in the ***.
Didn't Sony and everyone else involved in "Smart TVs" have real end users test their systems? If they had, I'm sure the testers would have indicated a need for keyboard and mouse support.

Thats Why
That's why this thing uses a smart phone. The Smart Phone has a keyboard of sorts. A tablet would work even better. And YES, of course a keyboard is better for inputting text than some sort of joystick/random letter wheel.
Even the smartphone keyboard is too small. For keyboard input, bigger is better.

Great idea! I love it! Seems like a great alternative to people that can't afford to buy the latest flat screen with all the internet options.
