what's up brian Tong here on the Apple Biden with the new year there's always something to be excited about with the anticipation of apple releasing new products and the hope of what we might see in the future so this is my apple byte 2015 predictions episode and disclaimer this is for fun I could be right and I could be wrong but we will let time be the judge so first up the hottest product in 2015 from Apple will be not the Apple watch but the new Apple TV say what yeah I'm going out on a limb here now sure the Apple watches all the sex appeal right now but how many people are really going to buy it people are still trying to convince themselves that they actually need a SmartWatch just because Apple is making one now now here's why I say Apple TV there's networks like HBO CBS and others like ESPN and the NBA have already agreed that they will offer their programming as a streaming ala carte option in 2015 and we'll hear plenty of more networks do the same and we already know Disney and ABC will be on board with their Apple connection rumors of an actual standalone TV have slowed to a whisper and if Apple can bring us a set-top box with a game-changing interface and ala carte TV network options that no one has been able to deliver yet then that could be your winner for 2015 and yes sure they might still sell an actual TV set but more likely a new Apple TV set-top box that's more useful than a SmartWatch and more affordable than 12 and that's my bet which leads me to my next prediction how many apple washes do you think the big a will sell in the first year now if we look at some historical data with recent new product categories the original iPad was a product people originally said they didn't need at all it started at 399 and sold roughly 15 million units for the first gen ipad in year one so taking that into consideration and the fact that two million smart watches were sold for all of 2013 I'm gonna go pretty conservative and say that the apple watch will sell eight million units in 2015 and fitness bands as a whole will double the Apple watch now the big a will still sell the most smart watches out of any of the big companies but they won't sell as many watches as they did iPads for the first generation and see that's the best part about trying to tell the future you don't have to write hahahahaha did someone say future it's me yes me is nastradamus your future floating friend oh hey no she telling us you know i miss you man where have you been ha that's great I haven't missed you at all in fact I just flew in because I heard there was a cookie party ok well the Apple biters you guys have some questions in we wanted to give them some answers well then make like a doodoo and go first question ok so here's the first one Sean Matthew asks where the heck is the ipod touch I have a 5th gen and I want to get a new one ah yes the ipod touches in China China look for it next year with 128 gigs of storage and it will look exactly like the ipod touch kitchen please challenge me challenge me next question Nostradamus campinas de los wearables no real ojos intelligent a's realmente Quentin el éxito Andrew loss consume me Doris Oh see next question so noster Tongass should I trust Apple pay well yes yes so far so good and you only have one finger but you know what they say everything is hackable even my father's magazine stash hahaha nice where's your so if you know everything who's gonna win the NBA title you know I'm a Golden State Warriors spent all that Stephan curry is so nice but they need a backup center and better shooting off the bench for some scoring punch that's right not only do I know crystal balls I no basketballs oh oh hey no sir thomas i notice a little different are you wearing eye shadow next question hey knows your Tongass are you single are you on tinder are you gay yes uh not yet and maybe next question nostra Tongass what do you think Apple need to do to be successful in 2015 so why yes yes the answer is simple more new products and less products that look exactly like the ones from the year before just like my gypsies ah that is all yes me one and only knows the Tongass all right everybody thanks so much for watching the apple byte and we'll be back after CES 2015 and we'll see you next time for another bite of the Apple
