Apple TV isn’t something I’m much interested in. I don’t have a ginormous widescreen TV (SD or HD).
But I can’t shake this feeling that Apple TV is somehow going to be connected to the iPhone.
I know, according to The Experts, Cingular/AT&T’s data network is The Suck, yet I keep thinking that somehow people will be able to use that iPhone camera to display — at the very least (until True 3G or even 4G is available on that network) — images on home TVs via the Apple TV.
Scenario:
Wife at home, clueless husband doing the grocery shopping.
Husband (via iPhone): Didn’t you say you wanted Plotz? Or was it Splatz?
Wife: Which do they have?
Husband: Both. But the Splatz doesn’t look like the stuff you buy.
Wife: Show it to me.
Husband takes picture using iPhone.
At home, it shows up on their Apple TV-connected TV.
Yeah, basic baby-step stuff. But is even something this simple so farfetched?
