by Ana Maria Ciobanu

Profitul pentru Apple Tv se invarte undeva pe langa 20 de procente, in contrast cu cele 40 pana la 50 de procente pentru majoritatea modelelor iPod, conform ultimului raport al firmei de analiza iSuppli.Raportul nu ia in considerare alte costuri pentru cabluri, ambalat, marketing, cercetari asa ca sustine ca acoperirea poate fi chiar mai scazuta.Speculand motivul pentru care Apple scumpeste unitatea, iSuppli spune ca Apple eschiveaza profitul in favoarea potentialei abilitati de a propulsa modelul iPod in sufrageriile tuturor.Admitand ca unitatea este un hub media, analistii amintesc lipsa playback-ului pentru DVD, scrierii de DVD in comparatie cu declaratia lui Steve Jobs la conferinta Dow Jones D5 in care acesta spune ca Apple TV este "DVD playerul pentru era internetului"In legatura cu anumite componente specifice iSuppli stabileste pretul pentru Intel Pentium M de 1GHz care foloseste mai vechiul procesor 90nm la 40 $, pe cand valoarea estimata a microprocesorului Intel si a logic chips-urilor northbridge si southbridge este de 68$. PLaca Video Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 are un pret estimat de 15$. Hard drive-ul este estimat la 37$, card-ul 802.11n- 19$, producerea 10$. Adaugand costul unor componente variate, iSuppli estimeaza ca pretul total de producere a unui Apple TV este de 237$. Mark Kirstein, vicepresedinte iSuppli spune ca exista o multime de gadgeturi de tipul Apple Tv pe piata si cu toate acestea nimeni nu a descoperit modalitatea de a vinde cateva sute de mii de modele. Totusi, daca exista o companie care poate gasi forumula exacta pentru succes, acea companie este cu siguranta Apple
