INTERACTIVE TV

As the popularity of the Internet grows, more and more TV shows are creating Web sites that give you information about their program, and in some cases let you interact with the program as it’s in progress. For example, there are game shows that have Web sites where you can play along with contestants, and sports programs with Web sites that give you play-by-play updates and analysis.

When a w symbol appears while you’re watching TV, it means you can go to a Web site related to what you’re watching.

When an i symbol appears, it means there may be an interactive TV Web site where you can participate with special interactive content related to the program.

To take advantage of interactive TV, you must subscribe to the UltimateTV Service, which lets you connect to the World Wide Web. When you subscribe to the UltimateTV Service you can connect to the Web for a limited number of hours each month; Web access with no time restrictions is available with other UltimateTV Service plans. Call 1-877-ULTIMATE (1-877-858-4628) for information on Web and Internet access with no time restrictions.
