![]() ![]() ![]() Apple’s iPad 2 almost reached the peak of Apple’s KXX options with the CDMA version dubbed as K95, so Apple’s move to JXX nomenclature is something that would have to happen sooner or later. The first was the J2 – a new iPad – that we discovered just last week. Thanks to today’s beta release of iOS 5.1, we have on our hands the codename for this new Apple TV (3,1).Īs you can see above, the new Apple TV is rocking a the J33 codename, the second JXX product we’ve seen from Apple. Not only an identifier like “3,1” but a codename such as N94 (iPhone 4S) or K48 (original iPad). The next-generation Apple TV has reached that stage. IOS release history tells us that as a product in development moves even closer to release, it is assigned a proper codename. Therefore we think this speculation is off. Also, Apple seems to be going away from using its Mac Hardware as a TV device killing both Front Row and the included remote on many of its products. It will also be a living room experience unlike the up-close experience of an iMac. We’re pretty sure the Apple HDTV, if it comes to pass, will be based in iOS. The 27-inch iMac is already an excellent display for consuming video content, but how conventional TV features might be baked into Lion is yet to be seen. We know Apple killed Front Row in Lion, while at the same time introducing iOS-like functionality like Launchpad. While this appears to be entirely speculation at this point, he makes much of his case based on the fact Apple already has the 27-inch iMac in production. In short, we believe the initial Apple TV is their iMac computer that can function as a TV, over the iCloud platform. We think this makes sense because while we typically think about the newest TV’s hanging on the wall in large form factors, Apple could effectively start with what they already have on the manufacturing line and slowly push their offering from 27 inches and scale up from there to 32 inches and then move on to the 42, 50 and 55 inch market. The device would essentially integrate iCloud and Apple TV features, in addition to traditional TV hardware, into the larger 27-inch iMac design. Wedge Partners analyst Brian Blair offers up another concept, claiming Apple will introduce a next-gen iMac with TV capabilities that will act as a transitional device before jumping head first into the TV business. Some are calling for a late 2012 launch, but up until now, all have imagined the device as a standalone HDTV.
