The privately-held producer of consumer electronics, VIZIO has introduced its new and exciting “Connected HDTV” Platform, which provides users a fully customizable and dynamic entertainment experience with integrated wireless (802.11n) for accessing on-demand movies, music, news, weather, sports, gaming as well as social networking services from a bundle of leading popular content and service providers, including Accedo Broadband, Adobe, Amazon, Blockbuster, Flickr, Netflix, Pandora, Yahoo! and Rhapsody.

“As consumer demand for content and information grows exponentially, we want to address what our customers are increasingly looking for – the ability to enjoy their favorite content and services from the comfort of their living room easy chair,” said Laynie Newsome, VP Sales and Marketing Communication and Co-Founder of VIZIO.

In addition, the new VIZIO Connected HDTV platform will incorporate the Yahoo!
