3G iPhone and Apple TV Updates in 2008?
Apple is likely to introduce two (one minor, one major) iPhone revisions along with a major Apple TV update in 2008 according to Goldman Sachs analysts.
These conclusions are based on meetings with "key component suppliers and manufacturers" in Asia.
The two iPhone revisions are predicted to be
- Increase in Flash storage (minor update, earlier in the year)
- 2nd Generation iPhone with 3G and could have a different look (major update, second half of year)
Meanwhile, the Apple TV is expected to see changes in 2008 that "could include an LCD display". Other notes include scarce information about the long rumored sub-notebook from Apple with the possibility it may be delayed due to design issues.
Analyst reports have typically been very inconsistent with the accuracy of their predictions, though we have not heard much from David Bailey of Goldman Sachs before.

Doesn't sound like a good article. Apple TV with an LCD display? I don't think so, thats the last thing it needs. iPhone major update later next year... big news, everyone says 3G iPhone is coming out next year. Delayed subnotebook? I hope thats wrong, Apple hopefully will announce something at Macworld.

The greatest upgrade the :apple:TV could get wouldn't even be an upgrade to the :apple:TV itself. Instead it would be HD content on the iTunes video store.
I would buy one on the very day they announced this.

I was hoping for right after macworld. My VZW contract is up at the end of this month. Figure I could wait another 15 days to see if anything would be released.

I'm kinda hoping, now that NBC/Universal are being just jerks, that apple buys TiVo and puts it into a new Apple TV.
Don't wanna sell us content?
Fine. We will let people legally record it from your tv channels.

This might make sense if you look at the LCD screen as being the new "remote" for the AppleTV and as a separate tablet from the main unit.If the new "tablet Mac" is really just a glorified iPhone or iPod touch for the living room, then it makes sense that this is the unit you would have in your lap when browsing the iTunes store or managing your media on the Apple TV perhaps. It could also be used as the family book reader, library, web browser, house phone etc.
Possible anyway. :)
