LG electronics Ships Broadband HDTVs that Stream Netflix

Back at CES in January LG announced a new line of HDTVs that offered the ability to connect directly to the Internet and stream Netflix movies right on the big screen. LG has announced that the models will be in stores and ready to purchase this summer.

Among the models available is the 50-inch plasma 50PS80, the 42-inch LCD 42LH50, and a 60-inch plasma 60PS80. The sets require a broadband connection to be able to stream the on demand Netflix library.

If you are a Netflix customer with an Xbox or a compatible Blu-ray player, you can already stream the Netflix films right to your TV. LG hasn’t announced pricing on the new HDTVs at this time.
