Remember the mysterious reference to
iProd 2,1 that appeared in the iPad's code? We thought it might be a
new CDMA or
camera-equipped iPad, but it just might have been the new iOS-based
Apple TV instead. Diving through the iOS 4.2 beta, a
TUAW tipster allegedly uncovered the above key, which hints that we might
have been right about the device's app potential all along. Though Apple may rely on a simpler media streaming UI for the home theater to enhance accessibility and ease of use, there's always the chance the community might jailbreak the $99 set-top box to do
far greater things. While you wait with bated breath for confirmation of this wondrous possibility, why not check out our
Apple TV hands-on?
