Apple indeed has a TV in the works, claims Reuters on Astini News

Apple has reportedly engaged in talks to stream films to a long-rumored Apple-created TV, among other devices, according to sources speaking to Reuters. The company was allegedly talking to EPIX to stream movies to Apple's devices, but according to Reuters' sources, those talks were in the preliminary stages and have since stalled.

Talk of a TV created by Apple has been floating around for many years, but the company has not yet released such a product nor commented on rumors about one. In Walter Isaacson's recent biography of Apple cofounder Steve Jobs, however, it was revealed that Jobs was at least thinking about how to develop an integrated television set that would be "completely easy to use" and seamlessly sync data across iCloud, similar to current Apple devices like the iPhone and iPad. Jobs had reportedly tapped iTunes creator Jeff Robbin to help with the project, and told Isaacson that he had "finally cracked" a way to make TVs as simple and elegant as Apple's other products.

But even though Jobs was pondering the concept, it doesn't necessarily mean that Apple is currently planning to roll out such a product. According to Reuters, a TV was part of Apple's streaming plan, though the publication offers no further details about the supposed product. Unsurprisingly, Apple officially told Reuters that the news was "speculation" and did not comment further.
