I know this doesn't address your suggestion, but you could browse on your iPhone or iPad (assuming you have one or both) and then mirror the content to the Apple TV.


Considering that fact that Apple TV has no keyboard, I doubt this will be a stand-alone feature they will bring to Apple TV at any point in the foreseeable future. It could be done as part of a combo with an iPhone/iPad serving as an input device/keyboard. I imagine that would be possible now, but it wouldn't offer much advantage over browsing on your iPad/iPhone and mirroring.

The iPad makes a great keyboard to use with AppleTV today. I do not understand why Apple has not added a browser. It would make the AppleTV very attractive. For those with no iPad or iPhone why not permit a Mac or PC to act as a WiFi keyboard? From what I see, web browsing on the big screen is in demand today.
