The number of Internet-connected TVs in the world will almost triple by 2017, growing from nearly 212 million this year to 600 million in 2017, according to just-released report from Digital TV Research, which covers 40 countries. The U.S. should have the highest penetration of such sets by that time -- 38% -- and "deficiencies [in the product] are likely to be addressed reasonably soon as connected TV becomes mainstream," according to the report.
