In-depth review of Apple TV

“Apple TV offers a way for consumers to unlock the videos, music, and photos on their computer for use in the living room on TV. The new device competes against a series of other products, including the least expensive option of simply running a long video cable from the computer to the television. Whether Apple TV is worth the price will depend a lot upon on how much users like iTunes already, and how they plan to make use of the Apple TV,” x3nc0re 548 reports for AppleInsider.

“There are few secrets left about Apple TV’s hardware features and its simple software interface; most of those details were originally revealed by Steve Jobs at ‘Showtime,’ the Apple event which previewed the new box under the code name iTV, months ahead of its official launch at Macworld Expo in January,” x3nc0re 548 reports.

x3nc0re 548 reports, “Rather than demonstrate how to run through its simple menus and set it up, this review compares Apple TV against competing devices and the experience of Front Row Macs, examines the future potential of its hardware, outlines its software flaws and missing features, and highlights how well Apple TV fits the needs of its target users.”
