Thanks to my two boys (soon to be three in January), I think I know the dialogue to all the kids shows on Nickelodeon, Noggin, PBS Kids Sprout, Disney (Playhouse and regular), and all the Disney movies from the last 6 years.

is iTV anything else than an iPod, with a main power supply and a wireless link ?

I mean all its functions are the same as the ones of an iPod, and it syncs the same way.

A graphical interface, multiple input/output ports, a decent video processer, and support for resolutions higher than 480x320.

Seems Jobs is executing a working plan that Gates couldn't (Media Center PC, anyone?).

This is just what the "iTV" reminded me of.
What is the big deal there have been computers doing this for a long time already! Plus the digital recorders from cable companys. Just cause it is going to be made my Apple does not mean it is going to be the best.

I don't want to mouse with my TV! The iTV is just an Airport Express for video. I wouldn't be surprised if it is finally called the Video Express or something similar to that.
