Re:Discussion Q&A - Opinion Re: Apple TV? - 2007/02/26 18:38 i'd buy the tv in a heartbeat if they added a full ed-/sd-/hd-tv tuner and 802.11n, and offered separately a range of big, apple quality screens which could display the streaming content. you could even take the idea further: and offer a new top-end ipod which supports full hd content, and a matching dock with the tuner and wireless streaming capability.

otherwise, it's just a repackaging of the same "itunes and only
itunes" idea (which is why i don't have an ipod). an inferior
repackaging, at that. at least with the ipod, people can take it with
them. in fact, the highest-capacity ipods can hold more content than
the tv, in a smaller package. and i just don't think people will buy into a single-source concept when it comes to their audio-visual experiences. you're better off with cable from a cost/benefit perspective.
