Google has added Vizio as its first TV partner in the new year, joining Sony and Logitech.

The official Google TV Blog offers more details. “We’re kicking off the year with a new partner, Vizio, a leading TV maker in the U.S.”

“Vizio is making a new line of TVs and a Blu-ray player incorporating Google TV that will hit shelves later this year.”

Google also said in 2011 it will release developer tools for building apps specifically for the TV, and it will bring Android Market to Google TV, so users can download apps to their TVs.
