Very desperate
Those who stuck with Apple stock (the greedy bunch, who never saw it coming) growing more and more desperate. Suck it!

Yep. As I said, he appears to have confused expert opinion at the time with a court ruling in his memory. It happens. But, again, his larger point was still reasonable.
How is iRing revolutionary, don't Samsung already offer models with motion detection like on the xBox that don't require a special ring? Also Leap Motion will soon release a tiny unit to bring the tech to PC and Mac.
I was hoping something like that could have been part of the new iMac, maybe next year it can be built-in?

This is not a rumor. This is someone's (bad) dream with Apple products in it. This should be on "More MacRumors Stories " (aka Page 2). Come on.
That would be too funny if Samsung launched a TV firstit is merely motivation for Samsung to beat Apple to the punch
The biggest complaint about purchasers buying TVs is that they didn't go big enough. Strange, isn't it? It's because they're getting used to what should be current standards, but technology had to catch up.
I mean, I'm sure most people (including yourself) think it's a big size but that's only because TVs have only just begun getting into the 60"+ range in the last few years.
The proper size for a typical living room (I'm guessing 10' from viewing to screen) should be about 65" so no, I don't consider 60" large but merely adequate.

I don't get it. Are Americans supposedly more educated on the proper benefits of screen size vs. viewing distance? Sorry the rest of the world thinks that they can see the benefits of a 50" 1080P (vs. 720) display from 15 feet away.
Do some research.

You're American, right?

reports are ramping up?
coming on the heels?
try not to use too many cliches in one sentence. Yawn
I'll believe this when i see it in stores.
Its not even out yet, and people are already toss all these "cool" features they *reckon* they know ..
(till it all changes at the last minute) I can't wait to see that.
People got all hyped up about the Mac Pro, and some still are by then end of 2013.

Agree. I just got a new 60" Samsung 1080p (that was the largest that would fit into my viewing space without remodeling the house), and paid about $3K for a high end model. (It did include a Galaxy Tab 2 as an "auxiliary viewing screen" for that price, however.)
I would love to get a kilo of the weed that the analyst who claimed $1.5K for a 60" Apple 4K screen was smoking.
Using two devices to interact with a TV doesn't sound like simplifying anything to me. Having to find a ring to put on whenever I watch TV doesn't sound appealing to me either. This doesn't sound like something that Apple would do.
or so they want you to think even when they release something that looks like Apple's version
Don't you know Samsung already had this product out in 1987... so Apple is just copying them.
Samsung had sRing since 1987??
Yeah, sure. It had also so called "Smartphone" before 2007.

I have tried in the store. It takes approximately 5 minutes to get to Google and another 10 to type something.
