Apple TV has come from a hobby project of Apple to a very solid option with the 2.0 release, but why does not Apple design a whole new TV Operating System?

An OS that give you more control of your watching experience, animation between channels, program bookmarks, review sharing, recommendation and On Demand information (weather, transit, wall street) via widgets. Ok, I know that there are channels that provide that kind of information, but you must spend minutes surfing for them and it is not possible to have this information instantly, a widget system can solve it.

What we need is a TV with brain, hard disc, wireless transmission, automatic download of your favorite Youtube clips, a TV that understands how we interact with information and keeps learning about our habits, a TV that knows when there is nobody watching it and automatically dimm itsel.

A combination of IPTV+Mac OS X+Coverflow, something unique, I know that this kind of monster needs dedication, hardware and software and thousand of man/hours, but Apple has the ability to do marvel, the Mac, the ipod, the iphone and whatever is in the pipeline shows us that when Steve puts his heart on something, it works.

Imagine a 30″ Apple designed LCD TV with remote ipod touch and iphone connection, wireless internet connection, Coverflow for channel surfing, W for Widget with ready to use information, Parental control, Google Map, automatic Channel bookmark based on your previous selection of tags or topics, iphoto and imovie ready (wirelessly), automatic computer syncing, Channel and program Reviews, and Music tagging for later download on itunes.

A networked TV that can help us monitor what our children watch and when, that share wirelessly in multiple media what is being shown on TV, imagine having a Server based TV that recharge your favorites programs, movies and news to your ipod or iphone.

Apple is entitled to start the next TV Revolution, today is not about content, it is how you show the content. Tivo and Sony represent big challenges to Apple, they haven’t reached the panacea of their hardware evolution and Apple with its Mighty Touch of sensibility and detail can excel them in 2 more years or less.

Let’s wait for Apple TV evolution hoping that somebody in Apple is being thinking about the next Big Thing for this new Hobby called Apple TV.

Check my first consideration about the Apple TV OS:
Apple next move should be about Smart TV

Amazon is matching Wal-Mart’s latest HD DVD “secret sale” value-add — and beating it with a 25% price cut. The latest next-gen hardware deal from the web giant has actually been running for some time now in various forms, but is worth noting today if only because it actually improves upon a similar deal that’s been getting lots of press as part of Wal-Mart’s latest “secret sale,” going on now.

Both retailers are offering a total of twelve free HD DVD discs with purchase of one of Toshiba’s 1080i HA-A3 HD DVD Player, but while Wal-Mart is selling the player at its list price of $298, Amazon is offering it $225 — a 25% savings.

The web giant has also extended the same deal to Toshiba’s two 1080p third-gen HD DVD players — the HD-A30 ($269.98) and the HD-A35 ($359.98), which are being offered at 33% and 28% off list price respectively.

Of the twelve free discs, two come packaged with the player in the box (‘300’ and ‘The Bourne Identity’), five are available via mail order from a pre-selected list, and the other five must be chosen from a list of 24 discs at time of purchase.

ASUS today released the world’s first EN8800GT graphics card with 1GB of Qimonda memory: The EN8800GT/HTDP/1G. Rocking NVIDIA’S latest generation Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and an unparalleled amount of memory, this card is designed to provide a feature-rich DirectX 10 gaming and multimedia playback experience at ultra-high resolutions and maximum quality settings. Additionally, with the new integrated SmartDoctor feature, users have the option to overclock the Shader Clock to achieve graphical performance boosts of more than 10%, while the unique Glaciator Fansink keeps the GPU running at temperatures that are up to 7ºC cooler than reference designed boards.

Unprecedented Performance with 1GB of Qimonda GDDR3 Memory
“From what our customers tell us, discerning gamers demand hardware that can truly unleash immersive graphics and unreal gaming performance. Our approach is to combine the most powerful GPU from NVIDIA with 1GB of high speed Qimonda GDDR3 memory,” said C.P. Wu, General Manager of ASUS Graphics and Multimedia Business. ” We are proud to be the first manufacturer to introduce such revolutionary product,” continued Wu.

Even a powerful GPU can suffer from performance bottlenecks due to slow and insufficient memory. The more embedded memory a video card has the more data it can store, and therefore eliminating the need to use slower system memory. To address the requirements of today’s resource intensive PC games, the new ASUS video card offers not only more memory but faster memory. The end result is users can enjoy the ultimate gaming experience without lag or stuttering even at extremely high resolutions and with the maximum quality settings turned on.

“We are glad that Qimonda could offer ASUS this ultimate memory solution, which enables us to offer this leading product for the graphic card market”, said Robert Feurle, Vice President of Business Unit Graphics at Qimonda.

7ºC Cooler with Exclusive Fansink Design
The ASUS EN8800GT/HTDP/1G utilizes the specially designed Glaciator Fansink that effectively dissipates heat away from the graphics card. The Glaciator Fansink quickly transfers heat away from the GPU and lowers temperatures by an incredible 7ºC in comparison to reference design boards. Additionally, the Glaciator Fansink is quieter than generic fan sinks, making it a great choice for users who require maximum cooling without excessive fan noise.

Overclock the Shader Clock with New SmartDoctor
ASUS garners another world’s first by providing an overclocking utility that is able to tweak the Shader Clock on GPUs with SmartDoctor. With this application, users can overclock the Shader Clock and Engine Clock independently, achieving performance boosts of more 10% without having to reboot or re-flash their BIOS.

Exclusive ASUS GamerOSD for Versatile Graphics Usage
The ASUS EN8800GT/HTDP/1G comes with the exclusive ASUS GamerOSD, unleashing the true power of ASUS VGA cards. This feature is able to deliver GPU overclocking from onscreen displays during games; allowing users real-time performance upgrades when they need them most. Additionally, it provides users with the option to record live gaming action or live broadcasting over the Internet.

The ASUS EN8800GT/HTDP/1G will be available through ASUS authorized dealers in North America by the end of December.
