Hisense Finds A Pulse In Google TV - WebProNews

Hisense Finds A Pulse In Google TV


Google TV is really picking up steam as we head into fall and the holiday shopping season. The launch of the Vizio Co-Star brought an affordable option to would be Google TV owners across the U.S. by launching at $99. Chinese manufacturer Hisense is now giving Vizio a little competition.

Hisense announced today that they would be bringing the Hisense Pulse to market later this year. The Pulse, like the Co-Star, is a small set-top box that brings the Google TV experience to any television with an HDMI input. It will be available in mid-November for under $99.

The Hisense Pulse comes preloaded with all the standard Google TV apps like Chrome, Google Play, Search, TV & Movies, and YouTube. It supports all resolutions from 480i to 1080p alongside the H.264, MPEG-4 and AVC formats.

Skipping on down...

The Hisense Pulse will be officially unveiled later this week at IFA in Germany. We’ll get our first look at the device then.

I wonder how much "less than $99", the Hisense Pulse will be??? $49.99 is the max that I think any of these Web TV Boxes are worth to me.
And that is only for my Mom to use... Still, I do like the idea of a Web TV Box and a fully functional small key board and mouse or maybe a pad (not just a remote). I currently have my old P4 Computer, running Fedora 14 Linux and WinXP with a TV Tuner. Setup with 1024x768 Resolution and Bigger Fonts, so that I can red the text on a regular TV Screen (not a wide screen flat panel). I use it for watching Video and TV on my old Portable TV. I have been using this setup exclusively for over a year now and often forget that I am actually watching a Computer, really, instead of a TV...
