Netflix Coming to BRAVIA TV sets

sony-bravia-zx1

Sony is finally taking little steps to adopting Netflix into its array of AV electronics and Bravia Television sets are the first ones that will let you stream your flicks through the above service provider. As you can imagine, new TV sets will soon be unveiled at the upcoming IFA and CEDIA gatherings and its integrated internet video capability will be featuring a new spot for Netflix. Of course if you are stuck with Bravia Internet Link (DMX-NV1), Sony has not forgotten you as well, and streaming movies will be an option there as well.
“Sony has been a world leader in consumer electronics for decades,” said Netflix Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings. “We are proud to include Sony Electronics among our CE partners who continue to provide new and exciting ways for Netflix members to instantly watch movies and TV episodes in their living rooms on their TVs”.
Some of you could be wondering when Netflix may come to your PS3 and my guess is it may happen (judging by some surveys that asked the users if they were interested in it) and it may not, and the reason behind it is Sony’s own video library available at PSN Video Store. Perhaps Sony Blu-ray players may get a piece of Netflx in the near future too?

    So does anyone know when this will be operational on Bravia?

    I find it ridiculous that the 560 Blue Ray player does NOT play Netflix. It costs $300 yet the $199 N Blue Ray player can play Netflix. Will Sony come out with a firmware upgrade to my 560? By the way, their advertising on the 560 was so misleading so it only seems fair that Sony would upgrade the firmware for the 560's.
