Opera's TVR technology
Opera Software announced yesterday that they have developed a new screen rendering technology called TVR or TV Rendering. Opera claims TVR makes the "necessary adjustments to perfectly display any Web page on any TV screen."

I am really excited about the possibilities of TVR for HTPC enthusiasts; however, it doesn't look like a TVR version of the browser is being offered as a consumer download. It looks like they are only offering it to STB manufacturers as an option in their SDK.

I sent an e-mail to Opera anyway to see if they will be making it available for download. I'll post an update here when I hear back.
