"A few years ago, your smart phone was running a proprietary OS,
your TV was nothing more than a crap box to recieve local channels
and only your computer came with your choice of software. There was
no common thread connecting these three worlds. But the situation
has altogether changed with the arrival of Android.
"Android has united these platforms as it is based on the Linux
kernel. After bringing the Linux kernel to smartphones it has now
targeted the idiot box and television is all set to remove that
tag."
