Speculation is rising that Apple may have more models of the Apple TV waiting in the wings after it was noted that the way Apple sells the unit on its online store is more typical of a product with multiple models than a single-model product (first noted by AppleTVHacks.net).
Apple's online store has become a hotbed of rumors, with a recent leak apparently predicting the arrival of 8-core Mac Pros.
Meanwhile, LoopRumors claims to have some inside information on an upcoming update to the Apple TV software.
