Apple is a rumor machine. We have reported at least one other rumor today regarding Apple and they show no sign of slowing as rumored release dates approach. This latest rumor is in regards to Apple TV and about it starting to be produced. The latest rumor is saying that Foxconn is beginning a trial run of the Apple TV.

The iTV is reportedly being built at the Fuji Kang Longhua factory in Shenzhen. This rumor comes from sources quoted in the China Business News just after the Foxconn CEO had been "misquoted" as saying that Foxconn was preparing facilities to build the rumored iTV. Foxconn later denied that saying that the CEO was misquoted.

An analyst is predicting that an iTV would sell for between $1500-$2000 and would range in size from 42 to 55 inches. A trial run is not the same as general production. Often the quantity produced is minor and it is basically a proof-of-concept to check design specifications and quality control. Of course, this is just a rumor, so take it with a grain of salt.
