One of the banks offering this service in the US is Wells Fargo. There is a free demo on its site at wellsfargo.com which offers a glimpse of things to come. The equipment required for television banking is not much. One needs a set top WebTV terminal, a telephone line, a TV and a telephone line.This option is very good for those who want internet facilities without investing in a computer.
