I got an LG and WebOS is sooo slooow, and the built-in streamer sucks - it got many hangups and it doesn't support SRT subtitles...LG - I don't care for new features as long as the basic ones still don't work ! My next TV won't be WebOS based, that's for sure.

It's nice to hear of continued development in WebOS; the performance of Javascript VMs has only improved since the last efforts, and there are new techniques that a dedicated team could employ to make it even faster (e.g- compile into reusable code optimised for each device, without losing the accessibility of HTML/Javascript development).

I'm also a big fan of WebOS for spawning Enyo, which is a great Javascript toolkit; as an OS it just wasn't really quite ready, but I think that now the tools exist to make it much more powerful than before.

Webbing a TV plus phone plus computer invites multiple access points to nearly every electronic thing you have ever recorded.
Separate remote is just fine.
