| Yahoo! and Intel to Deliver Fantasy Sports on the TV Yahoo! and Intel kick off of Yahoo! Sports for TV, a new Yahoo!'s service that brings fantasy football to TVs connected to Intel Viiv technology-based PCs this football season. Consumers with entertainment PCs based on Intel Viiv technology can now get real-time updates on their fantasy football team while watching live games - all on a single TV screen. Using the remote control, consumers can get real-time updates on their fantasy football scores without missing a minute of the live game (or without missing the action) on their television screen. Key features of the new Yahoo!'s service include: - League Scores - Keep on top of games across the league and track real-time scores and player stats. - My Teams - Personalize the service to closely follow favorite teams. - Fantasy Football - Access real-time fantasy scores and league standings updates. - Scoreboard View - Get a bird's-eye view of what's happening across the league and fantasy football scores. Intel Viiv technology helps connect the PC to the TV, and enables consumers to simplify, share and control their sports, games, music and movies with the energy-efficient performance delivered by the Intel Core 2 Duo processor. The technology is widely supported by a number of PC and consumer electronics manufacturers, as well as content and service providers such as Yahoo!. The Yahoo! Sports for TV application is currently available to sports fans on PCs equipped with Intel Viiv technology and works with any Media Center Edition compatible remote control. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
