A Muted Reaction to Apple TV Becomes Apparent

Preordered today.

Gonna give it a try.

$99 seems reasonable.

I'm not totally happy with the new aTV but would everyone please stop complaining about it not having 1080p. Please tell me one net streaming device that delivers 1080p content. Please tell me which broadband companies can support 1080p. How many people have TVs the size that 1080p even makes a difference. Most people say they want 1080p for the same reason that Spinal Tap had a knob that went to 11. Why? Because it was bigger tha 10!

Zune HD on the 360 streams 1080p

Don't hold your breath buddy...

My current Apple TV streams ANY video from a usb attached drive on my time capsule....

(its unlocked, of course)

Time will only tell if this device can be hacked as well as ATV Flash hacks the old version. If it can, this makes it a very cheap option. Firecore might want to call the dev team in to help. They know ios like nobody else, except apple of course.
