Apple TV (iTV)




Here are some shots of the new iTV media streamer just announced by Apple. It will connect to your existing mac wirelessly and pull across all your photos, movies, videos and music. You can also copy things to the 40 gig hd to eliminate streaming. This would be good when watching a movie, music and photos are not that big of a deal. Its not a DVR which sucks but that may come later on down the line. This thing rocks but the DVR would make it a must have. Now its just cool and something on the wishlist. At $299 its a bit steep, maybe $199 would be a better price. The iPod/iPhone was released and I will have more on that later. Below are some stats from the keynote speech.
......................................................................
Apple TV will come with a 40-gigabyte hard drive that stores up to 50 hours of video. It features an Intel Corp. microprocessor and can handle videos, photos and music streamed from up to five computers within the wireless range.

Jobs also said Apple has sold more than 2 billion songs on its popular iTunes music download service, catapulting the company into the top ranks of music sellers worldwide. Apple, which sells 58 songs per second, or 5 million songs a day, sells more songs than Amazon.com and ranks behind only Wal-Mart, Best Buy and Target as a music retailer.
