Over the weekend, there were tons of buzz over a prank YouTube video that claims Google launched Google TV. The guy has two videos, taking you through him using Google TV. Here is the most recent one.

Is it real? Probably not.

(1) Any person who knows HTML could have put this together. (2) tv.google.com, which is the URL that is shown in the video, does not exist as a sub domain for Google within the DNS info.

There is a ton of discussion over at Google Blogoscoped Forums. Also Techcrunch has well over a 100 comments, and we also have a thread at DigitalPoint Forums.
