According to Smarthouse , Apple will be offering its rumored television in three sizes, starting at 32′ . The new tube is likely to be powered by the new A6 processor that will also likely power the upcoming iPad 3.

Sources from Japan have told Smarthouse that three sizes are being planned including a 32″ and a 55″ model.

Sources at a major Japanese company who are involved in manufacturing the TV believe that the 55″ model will compete with new Smart TVs from Samsung and LG that will have new processors built in while offering a combination of OLED display, as well as new Super HD TV technology from LG.

The Smarthouse report doesn’t specifically name the A6 processor, but does claim it to be a “new processor” which most likley means the A6. The site is also reporting that the new Apple tube will launch sometime in the fourth quarter of 2012.
