Rumor: Kinect-enabled Internet Explorer browser coming to Xbox 360

4.5

Good news: the Xbox 360 will finally have a web browser in the near future, according to a Verge source. Bad news: It's Internet Explorer.

The source tells The Verge that the new web browser is based on Internet Explorer 9, and features Kinect functionality, allowing users to search with voice input just like the Bing search tech used in the current dashboard. Users will also be able to browse the web without talking to it, reportedly.

It would be nice but what kept microsoft from adding internet browsing in the past was the threat of computer visuses. I could see the point in now having one on there that is why we all have computers.
