My wishlist for a 'TV': 1. High quality LCD panel 2. 'good enough' speakers (optional) 3. 4+ HDMI ports 4. no TV tuner, composite, component, etc. 5. Proper working HDMI CEC support 6. Make it as 'always on' as my Macbook or Apple Cinema Display – hit a button or activate a display and the screen comes on instantly. For the premium model, add: 1. Ambient light detection to adjust brightness 2. Embedded RPi-like (or actually RPi) on a fifth 'overlay' input (i.e. the HUD/guide/etc). Make it open source, let people hack it and do fun stuff with it, build widgets, whatever. Don't sell me on 'Your TV can do Netflix now!' Every device in my house with an LCD can play Netflix. My iPad from 2010 can play Netflix, and it can do it better than most smart TVs can. The only thing I own that uses 2.4 GHz that doesn't play Netflix is my microwave, and if it did I might actually use it. If I buy a $70 AppleTV and it becomes obsolete, outdated, or can't support what I want, I can buy another $70 AppleTV. If I buy an $1800 SmartTV and the 'Smart' features become obsolete, outdated, or can't do what I want, then 50% of my value is gone.
