Motorola Mobility shows off its vision for TV UIs with DreamGallery-- a cloud-powered HTML 5-based on-screen display allowing users to browse content as if it was the internet.

Designed to turn TVs (with or without an STB) into a cross-platform media centre, DreamGallery bridges PCs, tablets and smartphones and aggregates content from cable, the internet and VOD on a single screen.

A demo video shows a slick, web-inspired UI replete with simple menus and pull-down tabs. The comparison with internet browsers goes further, as DreamGallery provides users with bookmarks, personalised recommendations and search engines.

Operators get an easy-to-use portal generator and SDK for rapid personalisation and changes.

So, Motorola does Google TV-- but what will happen to the DreamGallery project once Google swallows the TV maker entirely?
