Electronics industry market research firm iSuppli recently published a report on Internet-enabled TVs (IETVs) that has some very exciting implications for the Yahoo! Connected TV platform. According to the report, 27.7 million IETVs will be shipped in 2010- a 125% increase from 2009! Shipments of IETVs will increase at double-digit rates until 2014 and at that time there will be more than 148.3 million units in market and will account for 54% of total flat panel TVs in market.

Finance or Facebook, Pandora or eBay, or your choice from 50,000 movies and TV shows, it’s just a click away.
