    • Apple Needs to Execute, No Longer Innovate [view article]
      I agree that execution is vital. But innovation is crucial to growth as well. One area where I'd love to see it -- as an investor and a consumer -- is at the much hyped convergence of computing and entertainment. It could be the biggest category killer of all, which has just begun to be speculated about elsewhere: the iTV. It's a flatscreen that has all the features of appleTV (and perhaps a satellite/cable receiver?) built in, so you don't need all the extra boxes and receivers. The internet and the t.v., finally married simply and elegantly by the company best able to do so. Offered in several sizes to fit a range of budgets. LCD panel technology is so advanced that it's becoming less and less distinguishable brand to brand, so it's the extra features that will make the difference. If Apple isn't working on this, they should be. Jan 24 08:19 PM

    • What Should Apple do with Its $15B in Cash? [view article]
      i trust steve. period.

      but if anyone cares what i want them to do with their 15 billion... how about they create a product that captures my favorite tv shows and wirelessly transfers them back to my computer for synching onto my ipod. (buy tivo and merge it with appletv? cut out the cable and satellite companies with an appletv that comes with its own digital antenna?) also, please give me a way to wirelessly play my ipod audio content over my car stereo, but without requiring extra products or installations. basically aggregate all my digital entertainment content and make it available anytime anywhere. $15 billion should be able to do that, right? because if it can, $15 billion will turn into $150 billion very fast.
