whatever Apple brings to the table for the living room, i'm in but mostly i'm interested in an Apple branded TV....i think Apple is taking a very long time on this....anyone here can't wait to get rid of their SONY bravia?
Apple TV set.
Sheese!
I believe that, due to the stiff competition in the market, it will be as successful as the VW Phaeton.
Oh sure, there will be adopters who are very happy with the features and happy to pay the price; though the general public will not buy the product as there are multiple other options currently in the market at a lower price point, similar resolution and much easier to configure.
Eventually there will be a press conference where a Apple Television set is gifted to the Pope - followed by early retirement of the Apple executive (Mr. X) who was the head of the Apple Television project.
Apple stock will rise upon news of the cancellation of the Apple Television project and the retirement of Mr. X.
All will be well throughout the Universe.
I agree, my NX723 is easily the best TV ever owned.What's wrong with Bravia ? I love my NX720 ... Looks nice with the monolithic gorilla glass.

My.....Sony Bravia....(how did you know?).....is on its last legs and i'm trying to hold out for Apples offering. No sure how long I can keep the wife at bay though.
I still think an Apple branded TV is a horrible idea. I'd rather they focus on the next generation ATV that I can hook to whatever TV I choose. Not to mention being able to afford putting 2-3 ATV's throughout my house vs buying 2-3 Apple TV's at $1500-$2500 a pop.
but mostly i want an Apple branded TV
The only reason Apple would ever produce a TV is to eliminate the set top box.
I'm enjoying my Panasonic GT50 Plasmas.. best plasmas ever!
For me to buy one.. they would have to exceed my plasmas video quality

Why would you want/be waiting for an apple branded tv? I could see wanting the set top box for ala carte programming. But, if apple ever did make a tv they would probably just use a re-branded lcd panel, and it would be overpriced. Panasonic makes the best tvs right now at an affordable price. You can get a 60" for $700. If you really want to splurge and get 3D, internet apps, a great anti-reflective filter, larger size, and more calibration options, a 65" still only costs $1500. Give me a Panasonic plasma any day of the week, unless this "mystical" apple tv has an OLED panel!
My thoughts exactly. I love my Panasonic VT50, I don't see myself getting any LCD over a Plasma, and I don't see Apple ever making an iTV with a Plasma panel in it.
I'm trying to unload one of my GT50's to a family member so I can get a VT50 for my living room.. The picture is so amazing.. Easily one of the top 5 television on the planet!
