In an recent interview to NBC’s Brian Williams, Apple CEO Tim Cook, had said that as far as television was concerned, It’s a market that we have intense interest in, and it’s a market that we see that has been left behind. With Google placing its bets on Smart Glasses, Apple it seems is looking to innovate something that has already been in most houses for a long time. For Apple Tv, the bar is going be very high and hopefully Apple will deliver something revolutionary.
