A quanto pare infatti,c'è in cantiere un dispositivo grande piu o meno come un'iphone,con un chip A4,e solo 2 uscite...quella di corrente e l'AV
Il punto cruciale,è che questo dispositivo monterà l'iphone os,e sarà quindi compatibile con le applicazioni dell'app store.
Ma non è finita qui,infatti il dispositivo monterà solo 16 gb di memoria,e potrà usare la condivisione con osx e time machine per attingere ad altro spazio,nonchè per lo streaming video.
I soli 16 gb,sarebbero giustificati dal prezzo,che dovrebbe essere di soli 99 euro!
Non c'è bisogno che spieghi le potenzialità della cosa.
Immaginate applicazioni per iphone os realizzate appositamente per essere usate su una tv !
Senza contare il fatto di avere l'iphone os come sistema media center....una risposta piu che buona alla google tv presentata pochi giorni fa
Di seguito la news di engadget:
If you thought that Apple's foray into the world of home entertainment died with the last iteration of the Apple TV, you're quite wrong. A tip we've received -- which has been confirmed by a source very close to Apple -- details the outlook for the next version of the Apple TV, and it's a doozy. According to our sources, this project has been in the works long before Google announced its TV solution, and it ties much more closely into Apple's mobile offerings. The new architecture of the device will be based directly on the iPhone 4, meaning it will get the same internals, down to that A4 CPU and a limited amount of flash storage -- 16GB to be exact -- though it will be capable of full 1080p HD (!). The device is said to be quite small with a scarce amount of ports (only the power socket and video out), and has been described to some as "an iPhone without a screen." Are you ready for the real shocker? According to our sources, the price-point for the device will be $99. One more time -- a hundred bucks.
Not only will this be priced to sell (like hotcakes), it seems that Apple is moving away from the model of local storage, and will be focusing the new ATV on cloud-based storage (not unlike Amazon's streaming scheme, though we're talking instant-on 1080p, a la Microsoft). For those still interested in keeping their content close, there will be an option to utilize a Time Capsule as an external storage component, but the main course will be all about streaming. The new ATV will do away with its current OS X-lite variation as a operating system, and will instead adopt the iPhone OS for the underlying experience. There's no word at this point on whether apps and the App Store will be coming along for the ride, but it makes sense given the shared platform. Of course, scaling iPhone apps to that 52-inch plasma in your living room isn't exactly a no-brainer. Perhaps not surprisingly, Apple won't deliver the ATV news at the upcoming WWDC -- that event will be focused on the capabilities of the new iPhone -- but development on the product is most definitely full steam ahead. Is your TV screen the next battleground in the platform wars? Survey says: hell yes.

Evidentemente hanno visto Google TV e si sono messi paura La domanda è solo una: perchè non lo hanno fatto prima?
Perchè non avevano ancora visto la Google TV.
no,non credo sia cosi
basta leggere la news
"According to our sources, this project has been in the works long before Google announced its TV solution, and it ties much more closely into Apple's mobile offerings"
in pratica,secondo la fonte di engadget, pare che stiano lavorano a questo progetto gia da molto molto tempo,sicuramente da prima della google tv
la fuoriuscità di notizie è invece probabilmente collegata alla presentazione
come dire "ah,anche la google stava lavorando a qualcosa,ma tranquilli che lo stavamo facendo anche noi"

Engadget Gets Wind of K66, the iPhone OS-Based Next-Generation Apple TV
The code name has been in the iPhone OS 4 beta SDK for months. Joshua Topolsky reports:
Not only will this be priced to sell (like hotcakes), it seems that Apple is moving away from the model of local storage, and will be focusing the new ATV on cloud-based storage (not unlike Amazon’s streaming scheme, though we’re talking instant-on 1080p, a la Microsoft).
The big question — which I do not know the answer to — is what the interface is going to look like. It certainly can’t be a direct touch interface. You can already use an iPhone/iPod Touch as a remote for the existing Apple TV; presumably that’ll still be an option, but I don’t think Apple can sell a $99 set-top box that requires a $199 remote. And will there be a TV app store? If so, when? (Maybe not right away.) A web browser?
