» Apple camera - naah
My bid for new Apple products is:

- TV's. Two or perhaphs three screen sizes (something like 37"-42"-52") with Apple TV build in, an Ipod dock and perhaps games like on iPhone. Why - The market for media centres is ready and screens are now cheap enough for Apple to make a package that is not to expensive.

- The usual upgrades to the whole range including the Mini (which is overdue AND a rather unique product).

If they were to do a camera it would be a HD video camera but it seems pretty unlikely to me.

A more general comment. I don't get the idea of Microsoft (and others) with the whole touch screen concept. It may be fine to use a touch screen on a ATM or similar but using one all day long!? Try and hold out your arm somewhat horizontal for just five minutes - now imagine the stamina needed for a complete work day! And as for making your desk a screen, not exactly ergonomic and where do you put all your papers!

I think your TV idea is an interesting prediction.

Thank you both.

Unfortunately if it does happen it will not really change much around my part of the world. Apple is taking a very long time doing content deals in EU countries. The process is of course hampered by it being separate countries rather than a big one like the US but still. Of course there is other content, like illegal downloads, but that is not something for the no techies.
