It took Apple more than three years to release the current generation Apple TV, but we may not have to wait nearly that long for the device’s successor. According to a report out of China, albeit a sketchy one, Apple’s suppliers are going to be producing small number of fifth generation Apple TVs next December for testing purposes. The report claims that the devices will have a much more powerful processor, which will apparently be used to increase its functionality beyond that of a standard set-top box.
