web tv is not accessible, but the new tvs that are coming onto the market have the potential to be accessible if we get it built-in.

The only web TV's I've heard to be accessible are Google TV's, but I don't have any firsthand experience with them, and I've never heard from anyone who has. They're supposed to be as accessible as Android phones, so if they're running Honeycomb, the web should be accessible.

I've also heard they're really not accessible, but again, I don't have firsthand experience, and the comments were vague enough to make me think the person probably didn't either.

I'm curious about web TV as well.
