Would be interesting to see if Apple's ramping up a play for video, ATV refresh and possible HDTV type or just larger ACDs. Seeing as Apple's been linked with Disney's KeyChest as a rival option to UltraViolet/DECE - Apple might fill this with video?

I think the main point is: with Apple's product line grows with the upcoming iPad, synchronisation between devices will get tedious. Just take a look at the hassel if you own both an iPod and an iPhone at the same time. Although there is only few person using both devices at the same time, it will change very soon when iPad launch. I speculate that MobileMe will get major revamp and price cut after iPad launch.
