Samsung's ‘Smart TV' Actually Multi-Screen

Earlier this week, Comcast announced it would enable real-time viewing of its content on iPads and Android tablets -- but only in subscribers' homes.

At CES on Thursday, Samsung kicked that up a notch.

According to Tricia Duryee, Samsung has partnered with Time-Warner, Hulu and Comcast for its connected-screens project. And this plays directly into Samsung video display chief Boo-Keun Yoon's take on the future: "TV will become the focal point of content access and sharing."

Comcast and Time-Warner plan to enable tablets to change channels and toss movies, already underway, to other screens, like super-thin televisions.

Hulu's CEO cracked the door on a new Plus service for Androind phones, but gave no details.

So, "30 Rock" can go from 4-inch screens, to 7-inchers to 100 inchers -- inside the home for sure, and, maybe outside the home, soon.

Now, about all that bandwidth that needs paid for ... Netflix, we're looking at you.
