There has also been an extraordinary amount of speculation around an Apple-branded tablet device. Josh Doody has a background in technology, with undergraduate degrees in Computer and Electrical Engineering, experience in engineering, product management and development, and is currently an MBA candidate at the University of Florida. Here are his thoughts surrounding the Apple TV and a possible Apple tablet computer.<br />
</em><br />
<div style="text-align: right; "><strong>The future of television is really the present<br />
</strong> By Josh Doody</div>
<br />
In David Foster Wallace's "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_Jest">Infinite Jest</a>," he frequently refers to a device called a "Teleputer" (television-computer) or "TP" for short. The TP is high-def, fancy, online and pretty much ubiquitous. Wallace's vision of a TP was probably influenced by that wonky invention called "WebTV," which supremely sucked and mostly served to frustrate people and make them wonder what good the Internet was anyway.<br />
<br />
Wallace was essentially spot-on regarding the Teleputer, and several signs point to Apple gearing up for another foray into mainstream must-have technology that will flip the script on television as we know it. Many publications, bloggers and users continue to <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2009/09/14/apple-tv-what-happens-now/">speculate about</a> Apple's <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/tag/tablet/">plans for the future</a>. But Apple's foray into two technologies that have been languishing in technological purgatory is more than just coincidence. Taken individually, these technologies will build on the Apple empire, but together they will change the way people consume TV shows, movies and video games.<br />
<br />
The Teleputer's older sibling -- <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/category/apple-tv/">Apple TV</a> -- is starting to disappear without much explanation from Apple. However, Steve Jobs and company might be reinventing a new Apple TV (NATV) that is awesome and game-changing, even though it appears to be recycling decade-old ideas and assimilating other ideas old and new. The iPod re-imagined how we consume music. The iPhone re-imagined how we communicate and what it means to be "Online." The New Apple TV will re-imagine how we consume all media.<p><a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2009/10/13/the-future-of-television-is-really-the-present/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>The future of television is really the present</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.tuaw.com">TUAW</a><a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2009/10/13/the-future-of-television-is-really-the-present/">The future of television is really the present</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.tuaw.com">The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)</a> on Tue, 13 Oct 2009 15:00:00 EST.

<p>Good times for Charlotte, North Carolina: First AT&amp;T makes Charlotte one of six cities getting a <a href="http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/09/09/atandt-slinging-hspa-7-2-to-six-cities-this-year-adding-backhaul/">3G speed boost by the end of 2009</a>. On the heels of that news comes the <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2009/09/22/atandt-poised-to-roll-out-3g-microcell-service/">MicroCell</a>, a device that facilitates AT&amp;T 3G calls where coverage is weak or nonexistent. <br />
<br />
How? The MicroCell acts like a miniature cell tower in your home or office. Your 3G phone connects to the MicroCell just like it's any other tower. Voice and messaging traffic is then relayed across your broadband Internet connection. Charlotte is the sole initial test market for AT&amp;T's version of the device, though <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/18/verizon-launching-wireless-network-extender-femtocell-on-january/">other carriers</a> are distributing their femtocells more widely.</p>
<p>Here's the full breakdown on pricing: <br />
<br />
Purchase Price: $150 <br />
Monthly Charge: None</p>
<p>Optional Unlimited Voice Minutes Plan while using MicroCell:<br />
<br />
AT&amp;T Customer with both AT&amp;T landline and DSL: Free <br />
Customers with AT&amp;T Landline or DSL: $10 per month <br />
All others: $20 per month</p>
<p>I installed a MicroCell for a friend the other day, and after one small hiccup it's running. But is it everything I hoped it would be?</p>
<p>Setup for the MicroCell is straightforward. Most users will probably connect it via Ethernet to their router, which is exactly what we did. Optionally, the device can be placed between the router and the modem, giving MicroCell traffic priority handling over other Internet connectivity. If you don't have a router, the MicroCell can be plugged directly into your broadband modem and your computer can be connected to the MicroCell.</p>

To make this extra crunchy, we're not only posting our best guesses as to what will actually be announced, but what Steve J. will announce as "one more thing". <br /> <br /> <em>Steve Sande</em><br /> <br /> Best Guess -- The entire MacBook line will be made of aluminum, and the 15" and 17" models will get slightly faster processors and more installed RAM. If that's the only announcement, expect Apple's stock to dive even further than it has during the recent stock market freefall.<br /> <br /> One More Thing -- The iTablet. <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/10/09/the-little-leopard-laptop/">Netbooks</a> are selling like hotcakes, so Apple will get in on the action by coming out with a 9" tablet with a virtual keyboard and multi-touch support. Since it is all display and no keyboard, it will weigh less than two pounds. Think of an &uuml;ber-iPhone.<br /> <br /> <span style="font-style: italic;">Victor Agreda, Jr.</span><br /> <br /> Best Guess -- Ditto what Steve said, except I think a drop in price will happen in light of tough economic times. Despite what some analysts may babble about, Apple is interested in the long game, and that means building more market share. To stay in the game they have to get more price competitive on the low end.<br /> <br /> One More Thing -- Again, I agree with Steve, although I wouldn't call this a tablet. More like a mini-Air with a decent keyboard (Apple has long been in favor of keeping decent-sized keyboards on smaller laptops) and touchscreen up top. I think the form factor will be something clever and surprising. If it appears at all, of course.<br /> <br /> <em>Robert Palmer</em><br /> <br /> I think we'll see higher-end MacBook enclosures made of aluminum, and a sub-$1,000 model still made from white plastic. There's a part of me that says they won't ditch plastic altogether, because of the style factor: I bet there will be some people who still want a black MacBook. Hey, maybe there will be a black <em>aluminum</em> MacBook. Classy.<br /> <br /> One More Thing -- I'm still bearish on the iTablet. I think Apple has too much invested in the iPhone as a mobile platform to try and dilute it with another form factor with a different screen size. If it's a Mac, I'm not a fan of jury-rigging traditionally mouse-driven operating systems for styluses. Personally, I just don't think there will be "one more thing." He hasn't done that in a while, especially at "themed" events (like the music event last month).</p> <p> </p> <p><em>Michael Rose<br /> </em></p> <p>I'm also fairly well convinced that the $800 MacBook (dare we call it the MacBook Jr.?) is inbound on Tuesday, although I'm not sure that the manufacturing rumors are completely on target. The mutterings about a <a href="http://www.macrumors.com/2008/10/13/macbook-and-macbook-pro-port-speculation/">mystery port</a> on the new MacBook -- and a <a href="http://www.9to5mac.com/imac-macbook-dock">dockability patent from years past</a> -- are starting to sound credible too. <br> <br>One More Thing: I would love to see a BTO touchscreen option... and maybe a technology preview of an iTablet for delivery later in 2009.</p> <p><em>Mike Schramm</em></p> <p>New MacBooks are a given -- the Nvidia rumor sounds credible to me, not to mention that it's just what would push me to finally replace my old G4 Powerbook (though I'll miss my little 12" screen). "One more thing" seems like it's trending towards an AppleTV upgrade -- we've got HD content on the iTunes store, so it's time to have a set-top box that's fitting to play that content on. I'm hearing lots of Mac mini rumors as well, but I wonder if Apple will ever upgrade the mini -- it's small, it sells as-is, why break what's not broken?<br /></p> <p> </p> <p>Of course, as Victor mentioned in an email, "Whatever happens, AAPL will drop 10% because iUnicorn wasn't announced..." Think we're out of our minds? Let's hear your prediction in the comment section!<br /></p><p style="padding:5px;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.tuaw.com">TUAW</a><a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/10/13/tuaw-predicts-the-october-14th-notebook-event/">TUAW Predicts!

They were kind enough to offer today's prize: 200 CDs in their Premiere Stylizing service can be ripped for free (and they'll give you a deal if you want to rip more).<br /><br />But if you don't win the prize, fear not. They are also offering a 10% discount off all their CD conversion services, as well as their <a href="http://www.ripstyles.com/ripserver.html">Ripserver</a>, by simply using the promo code "TUAW" (no quotes). Not bad, considering it can take hours to rip hundreds of discs. That's time you could spend studying!<br /><br />As usual, read the rules below. This time, in order to enter the giveaway, we'd like you to tell us your favorite song in the comments. Good luck!<br /><br />

"I can't stand the iPhone!" we hear you shout, repeatedly. Fair enough, Apple's "third platform" can certainly take over the news at times, and the plucky little touchscreen-that-could definitely generates strong opinions.<br /><br />As a gift to those of you tired of everything iPhone, we cooked up an <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/rss.xml?exclude=iphone">iPhone-free RSS feed</a> for you. Never again will your eyes burn with the news of yet another <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/08/14/motionx-dice-lets-you-roll-dem-bones-on-your-iphone/">dice-rolling app</a>, or <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/08/12/silly-accessories-the-steve-jobs-iphone-dock/">wacky accessory</a>. One caveat: older iPhone posts might still show up (we're going back in time to fix those as we can), and once in a blue moon an iPhone post might accidentally appear. We apologize in advance for the quasi-cognitive dissonance.<br /><br /><strong>UPDATE:</strong> For those of you who want an iPhone-only page, or any other category-specific page, please check out the long list of categories on the right. All those links under "Mac News" on down are category pages.

So why not label those discs with something a little better than a permanent marker? The <a href="http://global.dymo.com/enUS/DiscPainter/default.html">Dymo DiscPainter</a> is a rather large but impressive printer for one thing only: optical media. Pop in a disc with the appropriate coating, set up the print job and boom: a nicely-printed disc for all that soon-to-be-obsolete media you're carting around.<br /><br />We've got our shiny review unit ready to send to the lucky commenter who is randomly selected via the comments. Maybe not great for the dorm room, as the Dymo is pretty big, but you could always use it to prop open your dorm door. To enter, simply tell us what was the last CD or DVD you burned (keep 'em clean folks!). Be sure to check out Steve's review of the <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/2008/06/29/tuaw-review-dymo-discpainter/">DiscPainter</a>. And stay tuned the rest of this week as we've got more goodies to come!<br />

<br />So textbooks and gas shot your budget for a shiny-new iPhone 3G? We feel for ya, with your old-and-busted first-gen iPhone, nano, Airport Extreme and shiny new MacBook.

Tell you what, we'll give you a bunch of accessories for those items instead, OK?<br /><br />Courtesy of <a href="http://www.drbott.com">Dr. Bott</a>, you could win an entire bag of cases and other goodies.

    <li>Griffin's <a href="http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/streamline">Streamline</a> sport armband for the latest rev of the iPod nano</li>
    <li>H-Squared's <a href="http://h-sq.com/products/airmount/index.html">Air Mount</a>, so you can attach an Airport Extreme to your wall</li>
    <li>A copy of the <a href="http://www.equinux.com/us/products/stationery/index.html">Stationery Pack</a> from Equinux, so your emails to home (begging for cash, no doubt) will look pretty</li>
    <li>A copy of <a href="http://www.onlymac.de/html/stammbaum4en.html">MacFamilyTree</a>, so you can figure out who to email (and beg for cash)</li>
