Think the new display will come out with updated apple tv integrated? I almost jumped on a current "open box" at best buy for $800+ the other day, but held off as I would kick myself if they updated in a few months.

Yeah, I saw an open-box at Best Buy for $750 once. But I'm really yearning for the redesign and USB 3.0.

As for AppleTV integrated, not sure, but that's a pretty good idea and would definitely help make the price worth it!

Those and the ability to hook up a non-thunderbolt monitor to it without needing a thunderbolt device in between.

The next 6 months?!?! I don't wanna wait that long!

We need to pressure Apple into releasing it NOW.

This is getting ridiculous. I want a new large monitor but Apple is making me impatiently wait. This is getting uncool.

Sarcasm and hyperbole? The imacs are still in short supply. Apple has no reason to update the thunderbolt display while this problem remains. The imac was the obvious priority, and there's no reason to further choke production until that problem is solved. Prior rumors suggested the display process is the difficult part, and it wouldn't surprise me.

I might just buy the old one...

I am ordering a new 27" iMac, the lack of Firewire in the existing one is a downer for me as I have some External FW HDDs that i use for my Media files (not much heavy lifting there...) My thinking is I want the extra screen-real estate so that I can improve my workflow when I am working my organization's website that I help manage... excel and word files being cut and pasted into the websites databases and vice-versa...

It occurs to me that I will have all the USB3.0 ports I need on the iMac, but no Firewire... My guess is that the new ATD will have the same ports as the iMac meaning no firewire... and hell, if I have an extra grand after the new one is out, my iMac becomes a 3X27" display monster!!!!!

my Point is if Firewire is of any need for your machine you may consider the current model, and not wait for the next one... then again if it has dual TB ports you could get the TB to FW adaptor...
