This is for specific markets. Probably more for places like Africa and other emerging markets.

I think your take is a bit off on the implementation, you are thinking sony only for some odd reason... that wouldnt be the plan here. This will be sold to all manufacturers (if they arent already developing their own). Nice little idea though and could make a bit of cash, but it does seem to fly in the face of where TV is going.

Exactly.

Its no wonder some in this thread don't understand this because of "US is the World" thinking being default. 

TV is still big in emerging markets, and Smartphones are growing "exponetially" there as well. Merging the two is a significant ace to become the dominnt brand in places like India or Africa.

Addendum: At the very least they can sell the chip to manufacturers that make phones cheaper as well.

again, its no new tech.
