Liz pointed this out - Apple is advertising products (aka iPhone) that are not going to be on the market for a while. It is unable to meet its own self-imposed deadlines and release products on time, aka AppleTV. (I have forgotten how long ago they introduced this device.. wasn’t it sometime last year.) Maybe Apple’s new name, till they get their act together should be iFud. Or at least they should not make fun of Vista-delays anymore.

Sony Sets Price and Shipping Date for Bravia Internet Video Link [GTPKFQV]

When attached to a compatible Sony television, the module will enable access to Internet video programming, including high-definition content, from providers like AOL, Yahoo! and Grouper, as well as Sony Pictures Entertainment and Sony BMG Music…
A majority of Sony’s 2007 television models will be BRAVIA Internet Video Link-ready with the capability to receive streaming broadband video, including high-definition content. The module, which is sold separately, attaches easily and is concealed behind the TV for a clean, integrated appearance — even when hung on the wall.
The module links the television set directly to existing broadband Internet service provider via an Ethernet connection. Content, which includes Internet video programming, music videos, movie trailers, user generated videos and RSS feeds, can then be accessed directly on the TV without the use of a personal computer…

Apple has a completely self inflated view of itself. I used to work for a semi supplier of Apple’s. A lot of smart people, but let’s not kid ourselves, they suffer from the same inefficiencies as anyone else. How many “updates” have they released for OS X again?

The Delay on the Apple TV is due to FCC regulations and its only 2-3 weeks late, nothing compared to vista. I worked for apple and I can say for the most part I think they are more on top of it then other major companies.
