Stony Stevenson writes "Apple is poised to become the hub of the digital home by 2013, according to a new study from Forrester Research. The analyst firm's 'Future of Apple' report examines how Apple's product strategy will evolve over the next five years. Forrester predicts that Apple will offer eight key products and services to connect PCs and digital content to the TV-stereo infrastructure in consumers' homes. Apple's predicted dominance will also affect service providers that deliver broadcast content and broadband, retailers that provide in-home installation services and consumer electronics device makers like Sony and LG. To back up its claims, Forrester highlights a "mishmash" of audio-visual and IT technologies and products, including TVs, stereos, set-top boxes, DVD players, PCs, home networks and game consoles, which remain isolated products in most homes."
