Well, do you think this would be a hit? Do you think the Google TV set will be affordable?
Take the case on the Philippines, only a few has plasma or LCD TV to-date because of the hefty price. The LCD TV prices had relatively gone down but still it is expensive.
But the good thing is, Filipinos are now trying to be updated with technology. Families are now buying personal computers, laptops or notebook computers and broadband and DSL subscription rates are now cheaper.
Google TV might have a great market in the first world countries but not yet in a country like the Philippines.
By the way, how soon will it reach the Philippines? And how much will it cost? I should get one. Just kidding.
