“Sideview clarification please If I download Sideview to my I-Pad, will I then be able to type in specific web site addresses? There are specific web sites (eg European opera streaming site) that we presently watch on our current TV. We presently access the smart hub/internet via a wireless keyboard. Please confirm that we would be able to accomplish the same goal wirelessly using the I-Pad/Sideview approach.”

• The sideview app is mostly a TV guide. It has the option to use it like a remote, but I have found this feature doesn't work very well. The keyboard is only recognized in the AndroidTV OS part of the TV, not inside apps themselves. So depending on where you are trying to enter the URL, it may or may not work.
