Apple Working on TV of the Future [REPORT]

Apple is hard at work redefining the future of the TV, and that future includes a TV set that supports wireless streaming, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing sources familiar with the matter.

Unfortunately, this latest in the long line of Apple iTV rumors doesn't bring many specifics on what exactly Apple's next-gen TV will look like.

According to "people familiar with the matter," Apple is in talks with media executives at several large companies and is developing a TV with wireless streaming capabilities.

One thing that will play an important part in Apple's upcoming TV product is voice recognition software, similar to Siri. The software "might allow users to use their voices to search for a show or change channels," the WSJ says.

Another important aspect of Apple's strategy is the synergy between all the other devices in Apple's ecosystem. For example, a user might start watching a video on a TV set, then continue viewing it on a tablet.

None of this has been officially confirmed by Apple. WSJ's report says it is "unclear" when the company plans to start selling such a device, and even if a date were set, Apple may change its plans at any time.
