While tru2way is gaining increasing support from the consumer electronics industry, a post over at IP Democracy indicates things aren’t as rosy on the implementation side. They report that people close to CableLabs claim that tru2way certification testing on Pansonic’s first tru2way-enabled TV sets was a “disaster of spectacular proportions.” Panasonic has claimed that they’ll have tru2way-enabled sets in stores this September. However:
Panasonic failed the tests, with observers reporting “dozens and dozens” of bugs, so many that they doubt a Panasonic Tru2Way TV set will be available by Christmas, much less September.
There is more in the IP Democracy post.
