One day they might print the story and they'll actually be right, until
then they simply keep on guessing and hoping.   :-\

    Analyst Claims Apple Launching 55- and 65-Inch 4K Televisions
    Late Next Year
    -------------------------------------------------------------
    Apple will launch 55- and 65-inch 4K ultra-high definition 
    televisions late next year, if an analyst report from 
    Masahiko Ishino at Advanced Research Japan is to be believed.

    Bloomberg shared the report, claiming the displays will have
    a frameless design with suppliers including LG for display
    panels, Samsung for graphical processing, and Corning's 
    Gorilla Glass 3 for glass covers with units priced from 
    $1,500 to $2,500. Foxconn would be used for final assembly
    for initial delivery in the fourth quarter of 2014, 
    according to the analyst.

    A number of companies released 4K ultra-high definition 
    displays earlier this year, but they remain prohibitively
    expensive for the average consumer. We have no indication
    of reliability for predictions by Masahiko Ishino or 
    Advanced Research Japan.

    Earlier this year, an extremely sketchy report from Taiwan's
    Economic Daily News claimed Corning, Foxconn, G-Tech
    Optoelectronics and display maker Innolux were working with
    Apple on a new television product.



Why would anyone be stupid enough to buy a "4K ultra-high definition"
television?? It's even more useless that the recent silly fad of "3D
TV", except at least there are some 3D DVDs you can watch.
