At regular intervals, Best Buy sends opinion polls to its customers to see if they are willing to buy certain products. In such a survey SENT yesterday, Best Buy is talking about a 42-inch Apple HDTV that would cost $1499. Best Buy describes it as a "television reinvented by Apple" and claims that it would have a 1080-inch 42p screen, would work based on iOS, would allow users to buy movies, TV series, download applications and save all purchases in iCloud. The TV would be controlled by an iDevice and would provide access to the main video/photo platforms in the US: Netflix, YouTube and Flickr.
Interesting in the description of those from Best Buy is the fact that it mentions the integration of an iSight camera that would allow Skype calls, and I assume that here Best Buy was referring to the inclusion of a front camera that would allow FaceTime calls, but it used brands that are somewhat more familiar to people for to present the idea. It is hard to say if Best Buy has concrete information about any TV made by Apple, but what they present there is interesting and could be even 100% or only partially true, but we will find out when Apple launches the product.
If Apple produced a $1500 HDTV (let's say euros for Romania) with all the above features, would you be willing to buy it?
