Smart Viera is the new updated Smart TV platform and in 2012 Panasonic focuses on connectivity and apps. Panasonic and its partners plan to add a range of new apps in 2012 and the connectivity features enable tablet and smartphone owners to push media content from their devices onto the TV screen, as well as controlling the TV with the same handheld devices. A web browser is mentioned as well and Panasonic also highlights a Touch Pad controller and multitasking on WT50.
