    Why is it allways Apple that's involved with those rumours? Apples should better hire better PR guys or stop getting benefits from so called rumours.

    FedEx is a verb now, too... but both UPS and USPS manage to "fedex" a hell of a lot more packages every year.

    Hello, moderators! My post is factual and informative. I'm sorry I bashed your beloved Apple, but the fact is that it is not capable of handling output of MPEG-compressed full-HD resolution video streams.
