accessing Yahoo-Widgets for other manufacturers

Yahoo provides TV widgets that are only accessible for TVs from specific manufacturers (Sony, LG etc.). But these TVs use the same system to show widget contents.
Has anybody an idea how to cheat yahoo by editing infolink scripts that their webpage believes that a different TV accesses it and offers the EBAY or MYSPACE widget?

I don't know which company supports the EBAY widget but a banner is listed on the yahoo homepage since more than half a year. In an interview with the yahoo project leader has been said that a specific widget is only accessible if it is accepted by the TV manufacturer.
