Report: Apple HDTV will include 'iRing' wearable motion controller, 'mini iTV' tablet

article published on 3 April, 2013

According to Apple analyst Brian White of Topeka Capital, Apple's oft-rumored HDTV will come with a ring-shaped motion controller, allowing users to control their TV with the wave or point of a finger. In his client note, the analyst claims Apple will finally launch the TV later this year, and it will "revolutionize the TV experience forever."

Revolutionize the TV experience?? Nothing seems really revolutionary here. I can already do this stuff with my current TV and an app on my tablet over WiFi. Watch Video on demand taking it from the TV to my computer or tablet on the fly. Same features wrapped up in a more expensive Apple package.

An iRing will make a pleasing accessory to the zipper that runs up the back of the head of people who buy into this steaming pile of dog turds.

Yes, but when apple invents this pretty soon, they will sue you for copying their idea. I can't wait for their next invention, a long tubelike device that one can apply a negative pressure upon to draw up a liquid through it into the mouth. They will call it I suck, and users will have to log into iTunes in order to sync up with a soda

LOL then they have some companies to sue because this type of television/media content viewing is already being done. My LG Smart TV has a PC App and Tablet app I use on my phone where I can capture screens and share content. My DirecTV has similar features in their VOD services and DVR services where shows can be paused and played on other devices. So like most apple products that claim to be innovative and revolutionary they are really not.

Did people hate Sony this much in the 80's, back when they were the king of the hill?

Bah Humbug! How about an antenna that works for people who live out in the sticks with a bunch of hills inbetween. How I wish I could pick up free OTA.
