Yes. In fact, nobody actually thinks Apple will sweep away the big three this generation. Not even Apple themselves, I think.
But that still doesn't mean they will not join the market with some half-assed console in preparation for the next generation, despite the obvious barriers to entry that you correctly pointed out.
The rumors about Apple entering the industry have been around for a while. I've seen their patent application for motion-sensor controller on news sites a while ago.
Perhaps, Apple thinks they can lose money on this generation in exchange for getting some experience with the industry. I don't know, but it's fun to think about their business plan.
