This year’s CES revealed more about Google TV and technological advancement of the products on it. Last year, Vizio and others came out with their intention to sell Google TV devices. But the first version didn't make noise more on it. Google TV 2.0 which is very much used in Android Market. It was launched in last October, and it now seems like the platform will be a hit on the go. 

Some of the key things which will be available as of now with updates from Sony :

1. Well known brand like LG will show off a line of TV sets powered by Google TV based on the company’s own L9 chipset.

2. Vizio has some forthcoming gear in private demos and it’s not quite ready for the market.

3. Biggest gadget brand Samsung will start selling Google TV devices in this year 2012.

4. Marvell introduces some system-on-a-chip which is at the core of Google TV devices shown at CES this year.

5. Google partnering with the Taiwanese chipset designer MediaTek, whose chipsets will “power yet another wave of Google TV devices,” according to the Google's announcements.

One more Google TV partner Logitech is one step behind of this. Logitech launched set-top-boxes which didn’t sell and recently said that it won’t make any new Google TV gear for the time being. Anyway overall we must have a better Google TV experience with all the brands.
