Loewe TVs are known for having top quality at high prices^^..

Apple got low quality and high prices, hopefully Loewe’s operations wont be affected in case this takeover takes place

Well if Apple get into the tv business they won’t be called iTV’s. That’s already been taken

#1 so the common denominator is high prices, that will be a sure thing, now the question at hand it will be with lower or higher quality?.

#2 MACTV and/or TVintosh perhaps?

I’m sorry, you must spread the word to all of my disillusioned friends, who have dropped an iPhone once, and totally ruined it. Luckily, my Galaxy S doesn’t even have a scratch (I don’t often drop my phone, but I have a few times, and its done nothing to affect it).

And no, there is no excuse for shoddy construction. It’s a clear attempt to cash-in on accidents.
