Not convinced at all. Apple doesn’t need to release a tv. It’s not really appropriate. They know how the box is doing I don’t know if a dedicated television set would do any better. It certainly would cost them more than it does to replace a $99 box every year or two. I’d prefer them to stick with the box, it’s more versatile, costs less to produce and if it fails, they can easily scrap it. A TV would be much more detrimental if it failed as a product.

Maybe just a multi-touch TV remote, like a magic mouse for your TV.

Everyone wants to do it, but there no standard or usability. We need something revolutionary to set the standard.
