Sorry to hear about the loss of your child.... or was that not what you meant?

I am dreading the day when I will have to go and find a new TV as I definitively don't want a Smart one! With the current digital TV approach the set itself is relegated to the role of a dumb screen anyway, so I don't see the need for any additional capabilities there. Also, I definitively don't want anything Google related (read: Android) in my TV.
