  Apple TV brings home entertainment to a whole new level... December 17, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Apple TV:
Apple TV has been a great addition to my entertainment arsenal. The issue is that the HD space is limited. I had more music and movies than Apple TV HD space. What did I do? I discovered that streaming (not copying to Apple TV HD) my Itunes library has enabled me to stream endless amounts of data. I ended up purchasing an external HD of 1TB and am able to stream countless movies and music data over my wireless network. I use my computer memory instead of my Apple TV space. I would highly recommend going this route and getting the smaller Apple TV version if you are trying to save some cash. The only thing I have stored on my Apple TV is my pictures. I would only recommend doing this if you have high-speed internet and an adequate computer to handle the extra load. I have thoroughly enjoyed my Apple TV and have found several still old time photos and use them in my slideshows when people are over. High-Def Still photos are great conversation starters and create a unique visual appeal to all those gazing upon a HDTV.
  Excellent item and fast delivery December 12, 2008 I got prompt information from seller about status and warranty of the item. It arrived in few days. It is in excellent condition. I'm very happy of it.
  Stunning Simplicity November 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Simplicity at its best. This little box is simple to connect and get up and running over a wireless network and sync up with iTunes. Once connected this amazing device delivers in a stunning fashion. Most of the media content I "consume" comes from the internet (podcasts, YouTube, Flickr, etc). so imagine the feeling of being able to enjoy this from the living room rather than being tethered to a computer.
Of course you have access to your iTunes library (music, movies, video, podcasts, etc.) and the sweet thing is that you're not limited to the content of a single computer. You can access the content of multiple computers - how cool is that!
A nice feature is being able to get media without having to have a computer on, such as Flickr, YouTube, and Podcasts. Nice!
I've already decided to get a 2nd Apple TV, this time the 160gb model.
My world changed when I hooked this device up and I'm not going back.
P.S.
You can buy and rent movies from the iTune store. I'd do this through the computer and port over what I wanted to watch on the Apple TV.
  Definitely the wave of the future November 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've owned Apple TV for several months. For the most part, I absolutely love it.
Upside: Great quality, especially HD No more discs HDMI Digital Copy now appears on a lot of DVD's and Blu Ray Endless entertainment through the Apple Store With a fast connection, even HD video is near instant-on
Downside: Like most of the cutting-edge technology, there are glitches. It sometimes crashes. Sometimes its a little slow. A real pain to bring in DVD's due to copy protection Pricey movies and television.
