The emphasis on Apple is totally misplaced, IMO. All this article says is, many people watch TV as streaming media on their iPads. But there's absolutely no reason to limit the trend to Apple and iPad.

As usual you missed the forrect for the trees...

This article has virtually nothing to do with watching TV on an iPAD or iPhone.

It was telling us that these devices are a key to enabling new applications on the big screen in the family room - something I have been predicting for years.

And yes, this is much bigger than Apple - they are just showing the way.

The key here is creating an App culture on the big screen and using your mobile devices (via Airplay) as a content source and remote control.
