Gou said Foxconn is making preparations for iTV, Apple Inc’s rumored upcoming high-definition television, although development or manufacturing has yet to begin.
iTV reportedly features an aluminum construction, Siri, and FaceTime video calling

Foxconn chairman Terry Gou could be in a major bit of trouble over the above claims, this was taken from a Chinese interview where Gou confirmed Apple TV is coming even though it is yet to be manufactured or developed. We have been hearing rumours about this TV for a few months now and I was thinking of the possibility that we could see it being announced next month at WWDC, but with the above interview I now doubt this very much as usually new devices are being put into production when they are being announced by Apple. Also I think there may be a big problem with the name iTV as if you live within the United Kingdom you know very well that iTV is our channel 3 on our TV so we could see some major legal problems but I’m sure this will end up just being called Apple TV
