Apple's new Apple TV appears to be the first product to come packed with a single-core A5 chip, according to reports.
The San Francisco based Apple Media Event is on its way. With some of the world’s leading technology press packed into the Yerba Buena Arts Center, Tim Cook and his team took center stage to unveil the expected next-generation iPad as well as a revamped and improved Apple TV set-top box.
We've been hearing rumors and counter-rumors of an Apple television for a couple of years now, but things have really heated up of late.
We should all know by now that the rumor mill which surrounds Apple and its products will never stop. As soon as a product is launched, the speculation regarding its replacement begins and continues for the next twelve months until we actually see the launch happening in front of us. One of the latest and most persistent rumors surrounds Apple’s intention to release a branded physical television set which some have dubbed the 'iTV'.
If the speculation is to be believed, then Apple has plans in place to adopt and support the new 802.11ac specification across Airport base stations, Time Capsules, Apple TV, Notebooks and potentially the company’s range of mobile devices.
Running out of patience with the iPad 3 and iPhone 5 rumors? Well, then you have come to the right place, as today has brought about some new speculative chatter, this time pertaining to the capabilities of the expected Apple TV set. In the last ten years, Apple has been on a rampage with the sole mission of revolutionizing and improving the music, mobile and portable device industries and it would take a braver man than me to say they have succeeded in doing so, and then some.
General media outlet USA Today has offered teensy bit more information on just what can be expected from Apple’s purported – but as yet unconfirmed – connected TV offering.
If the Charles Sale from the Daily Mail is to be believed, then Apple are planning to put together a package in order to try and win the rights to stream the next set of Barclays Premier League games. The tender package for the games is set to be released before the end of the current season, which ends in May.
Apple's TV set top box, the Apple TV is almost a forgotten device at this point. Apple themselves famously once called the iTunes streaming box a "hobby," but we all thought that may change with the redesign that brought us the Apple TV 2G and an iOS-based operating system.
When any new jailbreak is released, the majority of the social interest seems to be about the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users. The portable Apple TV device doesn’t seem to command a large slice of the attention, but it is worth noting that the device does run its own version of iOS and as a result can be jailbroken untethered, all thanks to pod2g’s exploit.
