Bangalore: Two devices that had been in talks for a few months now are Apple’s iTV and iPad mini. Though the company has not yet announced their launch, Peter Misek, an analyst in investment firm Jefferies claims that the production of iTV and the iPad mini is in full swing. He said the iPad mini will possibly be announced with the iPhone 5 in an Apple event on Sept 12 and iTV will likely launch in either December or March.

Misek said Apple will likely partner with AT&T and Verizon for the iTV while also making set-top boxes for Comcast and other cable companies. The firm is now including 2 million iTV units in its early 2013 model at an average sales price of $1,250.

The report comes in at the same time when two more reports by the Wall Street Journal are in the news. These reports have the details about a set-top device which would let consumers watch live events and other content. Also it would allow users to watch content at any time, like a digital video recorder.

Since the current Apple TV's interface has received criticism, this time it would come with an interface similar to that of the iPad and would also include social media features that could allow sharing shows with friends over Twitter. The report also says users could access content from the set-top box on their other iOS devices.

There are a lot of reports right now, but these can be considered a rumor until Apple holds a customary big event to officially announce the launch.
