Apple iTV to Come in Three Sizes with Siri and A6
One of Steve Jobs’ biggest visions before his eventual passing was the Apple iTV. Much like what its name proposes, it is a television set born of Apple’s technology. Rumours have it that it will be out in three sizes ranging from 32 inches to 55 inches.
The iTV is also said to carry Siri, the voice recognition, personal assistant app recently launched by Apple through iPhone 4S and iOS 5. It is said to become a huge factor in simplifying the landscape of TV viewing in ways we’re already familiar with and more.
According to sources the Apple iTV will be powered by the new quad-core A6 processor. It is the same chip that’s rumoured to amp up the next generation iPad that’s said to come out early next year.
Rumours continue to spout out that Broadcom helped in making out the plans for this product with a new version of the Bluetooth technology. Bluetooth Smart is said to possess better algorithms that may enable connectivity with a bigger number of devices and at the same time, establish a far stable and reliable connection among them.
Prior to Jobs’ passing, he created an idea about how Apple might aid in revolutionizing our TV viewing ways. According to his biographer, Walter Isaacsson, the Apple founder shared that he was finally able to find a way to do just that.
“I’d like to create an integrated television set that is completely easy to use,” Jobs told Isaacson. “It would be seamlessly synched with all of your devices and with iCloud. It will have the simplest user interface you could imagine. I finally cracked it.”
