I thought those included a tablet.

The ones I looked at didn't. Maybe I misunderstood. Ike I said earlier I buy a lot of TVs for my business and I had to be careful the last time to choose one that came with a remote. Now you have aroused my curiosity, I'll have to research it.

I haven't used the TV remote in umpteen years. I just use the cable remote.

I do too, well satellite, but there are functions on the TV remote that are not on the Sat remote.

Not yet, at least. The broadcasting companies don't even bother worrying about newer tech until 35% to 45% of households own a 4K TV. They estimate by the end of 2017 the US will have reached that 40%. A quality tv under average use should by all means last you 8-10 years. There are exceptions of course as some have mentioned in this thread. Sometimes you end up being the guy who got a dud tv that only lasted 3-4 years.

How do you figure?

I think you were throwing out 2020 expectations as this year expectations, and even those expectations are always inflated heavily.

Best Buy asea person told me the latest Vizios don't have a built in tuner.

For a cord cutter that is a deal breaker.
