I’ll have to check that out. I need to move to England if they are handing out the TV I have because it set me back almost 4000 US when I bought it. It does have some sort of Linux operating system and all sorts of WiFi and firmware update options so I’ll have to see what happens if I have it

I have the Samsung smart TV probably the same that you have. Someone put on voice guidance for me. You have to put it on and it will tell you what channel you are on the program name, if you have Audio Description, you can put that on too so when there is a program which is audio described, it

I don’t know, Siri has gotten a lot lot better in the last few weeks even. Since IOS 9 and the new phone the performance has been much better. A lot faster responses and the recognition seems much more rock solid. I’m sure it will still screw up at times but the reliability has definitely inc

I didn’t even know you could use a bluetooth keyboard on the existing Apple TV until the other day. I don’t see this as a deal breaker at all. Personally I’m going to order one next week when they come out. I’m excited to give it a shot. I love my present unit so a nice step up will be nic,
