Hello MRO!

The client is a bit of a luddite.  Extra gear just confuses  
him.

 M> you can get one on amazon with a gaming controller with keyboard and mouse
 M> built in, and a remote control for 40 bucks

One of the first things I had already done was connect a kb and  
mouse.  That made a world of difference for manipulating the tv  
browser. The orig article mentioned how terrible the browser is  
but it did not mention that the tv can also allow attaching kb  
and mouse.

The client has never used a computer mouse! ..so, watching him  
get acquainted with "left-click" "right-click" and controlling  
scrolling is a bit strainful.  I figure that maybe some kind of  
computer game on the tv would help.
