Turning the World on it's Ear

Check out this blurb about the future of TV. It is imagined in a world where Apple will turn how we view TV on it's ear. This is one of the best "guesses" or predictions about what is coming and why in the TV and the gadget world that I have read to date.

Ten years ago, many people started getting rid of their landlines in favor of mobile phones. Five years from now, we'll all be choosing our "cable" options from an a la carte menu on our NATVs, and we'll only need wires to bring the Internet tubes into our homes. Five years after that, we'll all be using WiMax or another ubiquitous high-speed wireless Internet provider. We'll be wondering why we ever had all those wires for phone, DSL, cable or Internet. Our bathroom reading will be eBooks bought on our fifth-generation iTablets. The iTablet will be the ultimate eReader on the market. Note to Kindle: Never mind, they know what's coming. Apple is changing the game. Again. Competitors, eat your hearts out. Consumers, rejoice.


Whether or not Apple is able to pull this off or not, it is this type of thinking and anticipation of the future that gets me out of bed every morning.
