Steve Wozniak predicts Apple iTV plans

Apple co-founder reckons the company won't give living room domination away to its rivals so easily

We do like to know what Steve Wozniak is thinking on Apple's current situation at all times – and now he's revealed his thoughts on Apple's much-rumoured iTV.

Woz told USA Today that he expects Apple to make an attempt at its own TV set, since the living room will probably remain where we kick back for some good old fashioned family entertainment. He also pointed out that most of Apple's existing products fit into a living room setting already.

An Apple iTV would be the logical next step for Cupertino – if Apple can get its hands on enough content to replace traditional broadcasting. But with reports of a stand-off with cable companies in the US, it remains to be seen whether Apple will give TV viewing its iPod moment.

This just sounds like another Apple product that I will have absolutely no interest in buying.
My 50" Panasonic and el cheapo HTPC combo will last me for years and without any of the anticipated Apple lockdown.

Unfortunately The Woz would probably be the last person to know what Apple is up to.

I'm curious to know what Apple may come up with but only if it kicks off the nascent Media Centres currently available. All the solutions suffer from took much complexity or too many restrictions. Or Both!

Apple usually wraps up an easy to use clean interface with their own "user friendly" razor wire. I'll go for it if I can put up my own fencing, or none.
