Not clear on your question, but the TV supports Netflix, Hulu, etc streaming content (i.e., it's not directly usable to web surf, if that was your query).

I saw the info-mercial today and it looked interesting, but with all the bad experiences with the GT 101... I really would like to hear from others about their experience dealing with the company, ordering, the final price, etc. Anyone buy one?????

Recommended download speed for "HD" is 10mbs (maybe 5-10mbs); need 1.5mbs for SD. Use your laptop to test speed of LAN wired or wi-fi (unplug wire to test wi-fi). Use a website like speedtest.org to find download speed. If you don't have 1.5mbs, streaming will be very iffy. Walk your laptop to where you would place the streaming device for the speed test - run it several times to get a set of readings. The S790 is a high quality blu-ray & DVD playback unit; its outstanding feature is the dual core processor that loads video streaming MUCH faster -- it loads about 5x faster than my $130 Panasonic 215 & 220 for video streaming and there is less PQ switching. The S790 was worth $230, and at $200, a good bargain although most people can't believe the price difference is worth the faster steaming. It's hard to suggest buying the S790 until you know your wi-fi bandwidth. If you have 5-10mbs, the S790 will stream very well, in my experience with this Sony and 2 basic Panasonic models.

Thank you for the advice. I played with the ISO, MP and color settings a little bit today and got some pictures that came out a little better. Sadly, I am comparing the pictures to my 8 year old Canon S50 and the S50 takes better pictures. Indoor flash pictures are particularly disappointing. It is hard for me to accept this. The reason I want to upgrade the S50 is for the smaller size, wider angle, zoom and HD video. I expect the pictures to be at least as good if not better after so many years.The S95 is a great suggestion. I may look into a Panasonic too. Now back to the search for the S50 successor.

thanks for clearing that up. I can't believe they'd leave the ethernet port off of the "streamlined" model, though. Very annoying! Hopefully still worth it, though. Should be a great picture, which is the most important part.

Hi, mine was GT650M. Very powerful but display and touchpad is very bad. Returned it for that reason.

The camera is just a camera with networking capabilities. Really iffy network capabilities. If you're looking for a reliable internet video link, look elsewhere. This is not it.

I have setup port forwarding for many different virtual servers. I use the Foscam cameras and the port forwarding for them works perfectly. I cant see that the Panasonic cameras would be any different. I just use static ip addresses for each of the cameras and then forward the appropriate port for each camera and it works great. Even the DYNDNS works great on these as well. Hope this helps.

Update: The setup works fine. I am now able to wirelessly connect the Panasonic with the internet and either watch YouTube or rent a movie or tv show from Amazon.

Hello, FRANKLIN SPRINGER.I have used it with the Internet and DLNA and that last one does not have more of downloading 10Mbps and promotion when in the description is selling like high-speed even of 300Mbps.Try to use it in the USB ports with hard drive of 1TB and also gave the same downloading speed and promotion.The reference it mistakes telephony in the description and I thought it was a servers and SIP for customers only SIP.The truth is the high cost is preferable to buy a Buffalo for the same price, and even less since the end just use wireless Internet for DNLA since it does not do me at that speed.

Hi K. Ness, I just bought the S10 3t 2 days ago in Seattle Fry's for $499. Since then I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium (a must if you want to truly enjoy the multi-touch features) and now looking to upgrade to 2G RAM (less of a must as the netbook is performing really well already but I'm used to laptops and using MS Office so I want the extra speed). Regarding the GPS and WiMax that's the bit I'm struggling with at the moment. I keep reading various take on wether it is included or not. Same with Bluetooth. None seems to be working for me despite finding all the drivers on the web (drivers which are meant to be for the S10-3T which is the unit I have in my hands - btw typing this reply with it at the moment). There's also a slot for a 3G Sim Card which I have inserted but no luck there either. Probably because this is such a new product there's still no support page on Lenovo support website. So to summarise this is a great netbook/tablet PC (nice capacitive touch screen, large keyboard, decent performance) but I would have liked to see more out of the box support and documentation. Does it have GPS, WiMax, Bluetooth, 3G support ? I'm frustrated to say "I don't know" despite having the device in my own hands. So Lenovo I suggest you formally and clearly document what's in and what's not. One last thing the speakers are pretty poor compare to the iPhone's which has less physical space. But overall still a great piece of technology for the price as you get the best of both world (a netbook and a slate) and I highly recommend it.

gojo Well, I can tell you that I talked to Panasonic and you will have to hard player to something in order for it to go online. You will need an ethernet adapter with LAN cable. This is what you would use to play games, so they are called internet wireless bridge, or adapter bridge. Just make sure you can use a LAN cable with it since there are no other options on player. Check out other threads concerning this too. They mention types of adapters to use. Val

Yes I did. I had a lot of problems with Internet connections with this Asus laptop, even though my router was less than 2 feet away. In fact, I couldn't even get Ethernet connection with it. Then I realize that it's more of a software problem than a hardware one. I did a clean fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr. And I haven't had a problem with Internet or Ethernet connection ever since.
