Insignia_Connected_TV_Search_UI_-_Print_Version_610x473 Best Buy has announced that it will carry two televisions on its Insignia brand that will feature built-in copies of the TiVo user interface. The retailer is partnering with TiVo on 32" and 42" televisions that will include the popular guide interface but do not include DVR capabilities.

Both sets will be broadband connectable, and include applications for Netflix, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, among others.

Best Buy is aiming to make the broadband connected television easier to use for consumers with the offering of the TiVo guide. The televisions and the guide are designed to work connected to digital cable set-tops and both screens are 1080p high definition.
