As 2008 has kicked in, it's now time to face the ugly truth. The clock is ticking for Windows XP.

02.10.2006Netflix coming to Sony
Some consumers might be happy to hear that Netflix is finally coming to Sony BRAVIA HDTV's in the fall of 2009. Most Sony BRAVIA HDTV televisions
made in the last two years will be compatible with new Netflix integration using BRAVIA Internet Video Link, sold separately. Fans will be

making headway into Netflix to bring streaming video to some of its products. Currently, Microsoft has an exclusive deal with Netflix to stream TV
shows and movies directly to the Xbox 360 console without any additional hardware (U.S. only).
