“Apple Computers [sic] has unveiled a device which will stream music and video wirelessly between televisions and computers,” The BBC reports.
“The plug-in hardware is due to be released early next year and has been given the temporary name of iTV,” The Beeb reports.
“Deals have been done with Pixar, Touchstone, Miramax and also Disney – where Apple’s chief executive Steve Jobs is also a director,” The Beeb reports.
The Beeb asks, “How do you feel about this new service? Is broadband helping Apple to compete with the big cable TV companies and DSL providers?”
