A Siri-Powered Apple HDTV Could Come 2013

TV would let you use voice control to change channels, stream shows

The New York Times wrote today that an Apple TV set is definitely coming in the next couple of years, and it'll have a super-simple interface that uses Siri to let you control it by simply speaking.

Based on a number of anonymous tips from inside and outside Apple, it sounds like an Apple-powered TV could be announced in about a year for sale in 2013.

It would use the voice control to let you say something like "play the latest episode of Modern Family" without having to use a cumbersome remote to navigate through a series of menus. It'd be Internet-connected, and would let you watch live TV as well as streaming options.

Clearly, it's still in the planning/designing/building phases, but it's excited to know that it's somewhere on the horizon.
