Apple Cinema Display goes to 27 inches, 16:9 aspect ratio
Jul 31, 2010 - 7:19 AM - by HDTV News Poster

Having reached a grand old age in the rapidly cycling tech world, Apple's 24-inch LED Cinema Display is today getting itself a new sibling. The new 27-inch display clocks in at a 2560 x 1440 resolution, sports a 16:9 aspect ratio, and does it all for the (not so) low price of $999. That might not sound like a steal, but Dell's similar U2711 (both offer IPS at the same resolution) actually retails for a hundie more at $1,099. For the price Apple includes a built-in iSight camera, a three port powered USB hub, and a universal MagSafe connector for charging up your MacBook. Like the 24-inch before it, Apple has really built this display to be the ultimate MacBook or MacBook Pro companion, since a single cable breaks out into the USB, Mini DisplayPort (with audio support), and MagSafe plug that are just about all your laptop requires when sitting down at a desk. PR is after the break, and the screen will start shipping in September.

Two notes on the rumors that Apple and TiVo are working together on the next-gen Appl
Jul 30, 2010 - 7:32 AM - by HDTV News Poster

So there's a random rumor floating around Wall Street today that TiVo and Apple are working in concert on the next-gen Apple TV -- it's gotten enough traction to boost TiVo stock by around seven percent as of this writing. Of course, it's not the first time TiVo / Apple rumors have gotten some traction, but two things make the whispers particularly suspect this go-around:


Of course, anything's possible -- Apple just bought Lala, which used a Flash-based music player, and TiVo is licensing its software to third parties like Best Buy now -- but it's hard to ignore those two facts and Steve Jobs putting down TiVo's entire business model at D8 by saying "no one wants to buy a box," no matter how much we want to be in love with love. We're thinking Apple's got something rather bigger than just another DVR in mind for the next-gen Apple TV, but we'll see -- heaven knows TiVo needs all the help it can get right now.

Sony to start rolling out promised 3D update for latest A/V receivers
Jul 28, 2010 - 7:30 AM - by HDTV News Poster
Sony AV Reciever

As promised, Sony will begin rolling out updates for its latest A/V receivers to enable the latest 3D signals to pass through them. Obviously this is only for the STR-DH710 and STR-DH810 that were released a few months ago, and can be performed by the user so no trip to the shop is required. If you happened to have picked one of these guys up more recently, then the download links below (that go live the night of July 23rd) are of no use to you because Sony has already been shipping updated receivers for the past month or so.
