\"\"By now you may have heard of the Apple announcements regarding their new TV and iPhone. The news is everywhere from places like Greg’s blog<\/font><\/a>, to all of the stories below:<\/div>\n

Apple CEO "Steve Jobs" unveils long-awaited phone – TV set-top box<\/a> <\/div>\n
Apple: Thumbs Up to "iPhone"<\/font><\/a> <\/div>\n

Apple Computer CEO Jobs unveils along-awaited Apple TV<\/a><\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
This one<\/font><\/a> is from CNN<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
This could be very big news for the mobile phone industry and the worst case scenario would be Microsoft, Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, RIM and others take a massive beating. In my estimation this phone better be one amazing device to do all that Jobs says it will do. But I do have supreme confidence in Apple and in addition I see how the user interfaces on most mobile devices can be improved greatly.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Apple TV is yet another idea that makes great sense and if done right will eliminate competition from anyone else such as SlingBox or TiVo. Why? The tie in with iTunes, iPods and Apple’s computers. Apple is beginning to put the pillars of home entertainment domination in place and it will be tougher and tougher for Microsoft if Apple’s keep it simple motto continues to resonate more with consumers than Microsoft’s strategy of more clunky user interfaces.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Of course Microsoft has Zune and the Xbox which are strong weapons in any consumer electronics arsenal. How this plays out is anyone’s guess but 2007 will certainly prove to be an exciting year for the consumer electronics industry.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
