LG has released its first televisions with webOS in the United States. The cheapest model, a 42" TV is available at $649. LG acquired webOS from HP last year after HP bought webOS developer and smartphone manufacturer Palm. The TVs are for sale at several U.S. online retailers and are all of the LG LB6300 series with different screen sizes.
WebOS is an operating system based on the Linux kernel and it makes it possible to write applications in HTML and Javascript. It was introduced in 2009 and should replace LGs current Netcast platform. LG also has made their own interface based on cards which each show different options and applications.
The cheapest webOS based TV is available at $649 and has a 42" Full-HD screen. The most expensive LG webOS TV sells at $2000 and has a 65" screen.
