Here are the latest Apple-related rumors from the blog-o-sphere:

“Intel is preparing to launch its rumored virtual cable TV service and set top box and has a plan to overcome licensing hurdles. Rather than roll out nationwide, the launch will happen on a city-by-city basis so Intel has more flexibility in negotiating licensing with reluctant content providers, according to a video industry source. The Intel box may also eliminate a core frustration with DVRs.” — “TechCrunch” (www.techcrunch.com)

“Given the increasing number and intensity of Apple TV rumors, perhaps 2013 is the year that Apple finally transforms Apple TV from a hobby to a serious business line.  The icing on the cake was when Tim Cook’s, Apple CEO, commented that it is an “area of intense interest” in a NBC interview.  What could an Apple TV mean for Apple and for you?” — “Forbes” (http://tinyurl.com/b34l8kw)

“With just over a week to go until the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Samsung has started to tease its TV plans for 2013. In a somewhat vague post on the company’s Samsung Tomorrow blog, an image appears to hint at a translucent portrait TV. “A true innovation of TV design is coming up with a unprecedented new TV shape and timeless design,” says Samsung, with no other details offered up.” — “The Verge” (http://tinyurl.com/al9rvv2)
