Google announced to launch “Google TV” in May 2010, with software either available in set-top box or built into TV and also designed interconnection of TV with web.

Google TV was officially launched in October same year, but unfortunately failed to catch the attention of the consumers.

Today Google announced major software update in Google TV next week.

This update will improve much functionality of the Google TV. Some focusing updates are streamlined interface along search capabilities and also compatibility of apps from Android Market.

The interface is now much simpler. The new customizable home screen gets you to your favorite content quickly. And within “all apps” you can see all of your shortcuts, similar to your Android phone or tablet.

We are opening up the TV to the creativity of content creators large and small through Android Market. Android developers can now bring existing mobile apps or entirely new ones to TV. Initially, the number of apps won’t be large – apps requiring a touch screen, GPS, or telephony won’t show up – but 50 developers have seeded the Market with cool and useful apps for the TV. We’re excited to see the number of apps grow.

This update will come in early next week on Sony devices with Logitech’s set-top boxes will receive update soon.

The update will be rolling out to Sony devices earl y next week, with Logitech’s set-top boxes set to receive the update shortly after.

Apple is also working on its new major update in Apple TV, as reported the coming update will be embedded with Siri in Apple TV.
