- Smart TV's will have sold 141 million by 2015.
Did you ever use it? Really, it is mostly crap. Apps don't work, videos are stuttering, "games" are bs...
And yes, they are doing well but this doesn't contradict my points. But we will see how it turns out - it's of no use to predict how or if one TV-manufacturer will steal the show from Xbone.

1/3 of my gamer friends have smart TV's, and the only ones who ignore the apps are the gamers because of the console experience. I am thinking about getting one myself.

All of my gamer-friends have smart TVs and noone uses it because it is absoultey crap. Buy yourself one and test it yourself - it is of no use to most people. The interfaces are bad, apps are slow (Samsung has dual-cores by now in *TVs* to solve this issue) and the content is mostly nonsense if it's not the typical lovefilm-app, for example.

My friend just got like a 60 inch smart tv and before he got his PS3, he was using netflix on the TV just fine.

The apps on smart TV's are pretty terrible in performance and UI when you compare them to what the PS3 and 360 but it's certainly better than nothing and to the average person it is simply a nice, convenient feature. When you're watching TV and want to watch something on an app it's much easier just to load up the TV app then it is to turn on a console, switch inputs, and load up an app from the console.
