Apple is working on a networked television according to Jason Calacanis, founder of Weblogs.
Nate Lanxon for Cnet writes that "these LCD HDTVs will be fully networked, with the ability to stream all your iTunes content from your Mac or PC. In fact, Calacanis told me they'll function like a standard TV with an Apple TV box, only without the need for the box."
"In many ways, this isn't surprising news, as Apple already produces a stunning 30-inch display for the Mac. So picture that -- only thinner -- in a bedroom, streaming iTunes movie rentals over 802.11n, controlled with the Remote app on an iPod touch or iPhone."

Hell, I would buy up the entire global supply thus causing an Apple TV (not the sandwich warmer) market crash, sending all TV retailers into a spiral of unfathomable proportions.

I would buy one of these for sure. This would be perfect for me.

Great point Lyrrad,
As soon as Nokia releases an N or E series of their Touch Screen phone, I am dumping my iPhone. As nice as the screen might be, I am willing to go an extra step or two to have a device that I want.

Lets hope that Apple build a TV with high quality image. The Cinema displays are outdated and quite frankly suck. I would hope that Apple's TVs rival Sony or Samsungs HDTVs
