Google and Intel may be close to ‘smart TV’ deal

By

Google, Intel and Sony may be close to announcing a long-rumored partnership to develop Sony television sets that are souped up with connections to the Internet, letting TV viewers easily watch the vast trove of information and entertainment offerings available on the Web.

Intel envisions its chips powering an array of new consumer gadgets. And during his company’s annual conference with analysts and investors last week, CEO Paul Otellini touted the ability of microprocessors to make TVs smart, predicting, “the television revolution we are about to go through is the biggest single change in television since it went color.”
