A Dutch Hi-fi site stated that B&O and Intel are teaming up. B&o seem to be working to television integrated with internet ?

Has anyone more insight on this ?

They are and have been.

Ergo the transition jump to Cat 7.

This will be an exciting year.

I've noted that there was an N.TV command (hex 0x84) introduced in the Beo5 configuration tool v3.23 (2009-09-08). No smoke without fire...

It will be great if this same feature is extended to the BeoMaster 5 for existing B&O tvs. It seems possible since the BeoMaster 5 already provides access to the internet. Most blu-ray players already offer great internet content such as Hulu Plus, Netlfix, Amazon Video on Demand, etc. While most of us probably already have these services on our blu-ray players, it would still be great to have it with an interface that has the B&O look and feel that pops up with pressing just one button, "N.TV", rather than starting up the dvd player and navigating back to the system menu.
