Hi Kawal, If you like the features of the Apple TV and have a receiver with HDMI or even just an optical input you wouldn't even need a TV. You could still use it as an Airplay device or to listen to YouTube, Netflix, Internet Radio or to stream content from your computer.
Of course a TV nowadays takes up a lot less space than it used to since you can get TV's that are so flat that you could simply hang them on a wall. My Sony LCD TV is one of the older generation and compared to the new ones it is relatively thick, but even if Apple made a complete TV it would take up just as much space as any other TV and the current Apple TV is such a tiny box that it doesn't really take up any room, I have it sitting just under my TV where it's hardly noticeable.

It's a shame you have to use this devicce with a normal TV as I have no space for one and I don't think I'd listen to a TV often so it would be a waste of time as TV makes me fall asleep. May be if Apple one day do a full accessible TV then I might be very interested as I'd like to see one device which is fully accessible like the Mac and I phone from the ground up. Kawal.
