Sony chose Opera browser for LCD-TVs and Blu-ray-players

January 19, 2011 on the official blog, it was announced that Opera browser will be available as a web browser for Sony TVs of the top BRAVIA series, as well as Blu-ray players.
Thanks to the Opera Devices Software Developer Kit, an open platform that allows you to adapt the browser to a wide variety of devices from pocket readers to, as we see, TVs, the developers managed to provide happy owners of Sony’s devices to use the Internet without even thinking about the correctness of displaying pages, since The browser, thanks to the new Presto engine, provides support for many HTML5 specifications (and in WHATWG terminology is just HTML), HbbTV and OIPF .
Kristen Crowe , one of Opera SASA's development and development staff, reports:

We know how the Network is developing, and therefore we want to make it accessible from more devices. Our ability to provide hybrid broadband access to the widest audience in a wide variety of markets has united us with Sony. Based on our aspirations and emerging technologies, we can remain the flagship in this industry.

Well, Opera offers its browser on desktop computers, on phones / smartphones, on electronic readers, on game consoles, on cars , and now on players and TVs. What next? Are submarines and space flight ?
