Does your TV have a memo function?

Last night when I was switching some cables on my Japanese Sony Wega TV, I accidentally pressed a button and stumbled upon a handy feature called the memo function. I also found the function on the TV remote as well.

When the memo function button is pushed, the current frame of the TV is paused, and a small picture-in-picture screen shows up in the lower left corner continuing to stream what’s on TV at that time (see picture below). By pressing the button again, the picture-in-picture goes away leaving the frozen frame on your TV. This is handy when there’s something to jot down from the TV show like an address, URL, or recipe.  




It’s a neat little feature. Maybe you have it on your TV as well =)
