“The most recent Apple product to receive FCC approval was the latest version of the Airport wireless networking hub. It was approved on Jan.
9,” the magazine notes. “The Apple TV device doesn’t readily appear among the many products for which Apple has sought approval since the beginning of 2006, based on a search of the FCC Web site.” If the FCC is not to blame, BusinessWeek raises the possibility that it may be a component shortage that caused the Apple TV delay.
