Anyone think that iProd - could be anything, right? or are we talking capactive screens that can understand pressure (there's a darn cool video out there of a screen that can do this well, but I don't have the link to hand)
But iFPGA?
Field Programmable Gate Array.
Now that is interesting.

That's 2007. If you could get a low power version - do an Elgato Turbo style USB version, or add to a motherboard, make their own...
Or PA Semi's work on FPGA, ("Kent Dahlgren, CEO of bridging IP specialist Praesum Communications, said his company had worked with PA Semi to develop FPGA-based bridging solutions between RapidIO and other interfaces.")

iPhone Pro Dock => iPro dock => iProd ?
By calling the next iPhone Pro, they have a great strategy - they can then keep the iPhone 8GB and 16GB, andhave that as the low end version, in keeping with the MacBook, MacBook Pro.
But... Why not just get a Mac mini? Seeing as it'll be BYOKMM ?
Why not have the iProd attach to your computer, then wirelessly do stuff? They're opening up BT and the dock connector (and hopefully looking at USB 3, if FW is dying a lonely death at FW800).
Bump the iPhone to 801.11n, then Bonjour it to a computer, and do some gaming through the big screen. iPhone's the remote/controller, the computer does the game perhaps.
Any which way, the two unknown iProd and iFPGA are both interesting, and what the iPhone could pack into it, is also v. interesting - the ability to get video out at HD res (720 or 1080) is pretty close to users. So why not let users be able to buy / rent movies through iPhone also. Or get the mobitv/ tv through a separate device out, and not just keep it to Japan? An elgato for the iPhone or more.
Any which way, Apple's looking at a hell of a lot more accessories. And profit from the margin.
Least we can guess by the 0,1 bit that we haven't seen them yet, and they aren't as likely to be iPhone, or iPod variants.
