Sony have just release new application development kit for its line of Bravia television sets. By using Sony Bravia App SDK users van easily make widgets and share with others.

SDK contains all the necessary encoding the information you need, and XMB emulator, so you can test the device with a compatible Bravia before dropping them from the public. Sony claims the validation time soon, but the apps are less than 1.3 MB big, and it does not appear to be an Apple-like arrangement.

Now, this SDK will be available in Japan, and only the Windows platform. Users can download the SDK and write their applications and send it to Sony's approval. In line with Apple's App Store. But Sony has promised that approval will not be long as the requests are not more than 1.3 megabytes. They have even organized a competition for the best possible use, and the Grand Prize is KDL-40F1 Bravia LCD TV. The competition ends on January 8 2009. So if you live in Japan, and I would like an application for Sony Bravia TV.
