Some brand new JVC DLP 1080P TV sets have a control interface (this is only present in some of the newest, highest end models) that allows the TV to be controlled by {presumably} a media center PC. It's RS-232. These TV sets were only introduced this spring. Why it's not USB is beyond me, but it's not.
