Amazon is making their own TVs now

[Street Hunger]

Variety.com: "After years of selling Fire TV devices that plug into third-party HDTVs and teaming with TV makers for Fire TV-based products, the ecommerce giant is rolling out the first-ever Amazon-built TVs: the Amazon Fire TV Omni Series ($410 and up), which provides hands-free Alexa voice navigation, and the value-priced 4-Series smart TV line ($370 and up). They’re set to ship in October."

I guess it makes sense for the huge companies that make a key component to make related components and/or the actual main thing the component is for.

Wonder if months or years from now Google and Apple will do the same.

Wouldn't trust a smart tv from any of those companies. **** that. It's already bad enough with Samsung.

Amazon and Google want to own the ****ing world.

What ever happened to Anti-Trust laws?

[Chick Stern]

What they want to own is YOU.
They want that TV recording everything you do.

a good move for them. Id like to see them evolve the smart tv space w integration but they will probably be ass. Fire tablets are crap.
