The snitches over at ThinkSecret are reporting on Steve Jobs’ next front in the war on TV:

Apple’s Mac mini will be reborn as the digital hub centerpiece it was originally conceived to be, Think Secret sources have disclosed. The new Mac mini project, code-named Kaleidoscope, will feature an Intel processor and include both Front Row 2.0 and TiVo-like DVR functionality.

We should know in about a month Apple (at MacWorld Expo in SF) whether this rumor is true and if it is Apple’s answer to Tivo. Better buckle up.
