Apple TV? I must be very behind in high tech news. Way to go Steveo.
First it was the iMac, then the iPod, then the iPhone and now, the Apple TV.
I am wondering why he did not name it iTV to keep it rhyming.
I predict that if Steve Jobs keeps moving at his present pace, in 5 yrs, he would completely dominate the high tech industry. He even have to go back too buy Microsoft.
More success to you Steve and your folks at Apple.
Thanks for that link. I’ve been looking at the Apple Box but some of those competitors look pretty cool.
“First it was the iMac, then the iPod, then the iPhone and now, the Apple TV.”
Actually the iPhone was announced first.
“I am wondering why he did not name it iTV to keep it rhyming.”
ITV is the largest commercial broadcaster in the UK, and would have risked bigger trademark issues than Apple did with iPhone.
The truth about Apple TV is that as a $300 Mac, it is capable of a lot more than Apple is (officially) allowing it to do.

It is an open source product and it’s cheaper than Apple TV with tons of features.
