so uh.... im still not exactly sure what this apple tv does...
so far it sounds like a hardware device that connects to your tv and acts as an interface to the net so you can purchase and download tv shows and other videos from the net then watch them on your tv.
so whats this thing do better than just downloading the tv shows for free from p2p and then usuing a wireless usb tv adaptor to watch it wirelessly on your tv? so the apple tv has fancy menues, big deal. my way is FREEEEEEEEE!
seriously, people who are too dumb to download are propping up these monopolistic dinosours. STOP IT! the sooner everyone learns how to download the faster consumers will take control.

more info, a foxnews.com review of the apple tv, and its quite long.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,260662,00.html
guess what? it wont work with non-widescreen tvs and its video quality isnt so hot, especialy if you have a discriminating eye and a huge hd tv. it costs 300 beans....
and after that review i can say that all you need to do the exact same thing for free (legaly no less) is a wireless tv adaptor and a fasttrack or gnutella client with sharing turned off.
apple tv is to video what itunes is to music, only people unfamiliar with technology need apply.
