Description
Apple TV has been redesigned to be small in size but big on entertainment. Rent from a selection of the hottest HD films. And stream photos and music from your computer to your widescreen TV. Our most entertaining design yet: The sleek new Apple TV has been completely returned for your entertainment. It's 80 per cent smaller than the previous generation - even with a built-in power supply. Which makes it perfect for sitting neatly on a widescreen TV stand or squeezing into a crowded media cabinet. Not only does the new Apple TV have an amazingly small footprint, it's also incredibly energy efficient. It stays cool without a fan, so it's never noisy. And when it's not filling your living room with drama, romance and comedy, it uses less power than a night light.

Strengths: Excellant video/audio quality of HD movie rentals, great storage for all your music
Weakness: Non HD content not great worse than DVD, iTunes store still has limited content
After introducing movie rentals and ability to directly access/purchase content, Apple has taken this product to a new level and turned into your multi-media gateway. HD movie rentals are great. Selection is still limited but quality of video/audio better than cable HD but less than Blue Ray. Apple is slowly but surely adding new content daily. I have over 7000 songs on my PC laptop the product...
Strengths: HDMI connections for new HDTV's allowing one to view HD Itunes movies and TV shows
Weakness: Small remote.. for the novice user setting up the network might require some tech support-- I had my Linksys router set up for me thankfully they have 24 hour support
I have been sitting on the fence to buy not to buy-- the reviews that had been coming out when this product debut was not impressive. Since they Apple has fixed the bugs and its now possible to enjoy this addition to your HDTV. Simple to use once you get past setting up the wifi network which for me required calling a 3rd Party to set up after wards the simple plug and play Apple has known for....
THE GOOD: Provides access to a variety of free and premium media content--including movie rentals, TV shows, music, photos, podcasts, and YouTube videos--on your living room TV; streams media from networked Mac or Windows PCs; purchases and rentals can be done directly through iTunes Store on your TV; movie rentals from all major studios include some in HD and surround sound; sleek external...

The Apple TV is capable within the narrow goals Apple has established for it. In fact, it does what Apple promises very well. But is that enough? <p>

Simply Apple
Strengths: ease of setup, HD content, 5.1 Dolby Surround sound, easy multimedia integration, works with Mac or PC, fits the Apple way of thinking, easy access to iTunes content, podcasts, pictures & YouTube
Weakness: needs more content, remote control may be too simple & not very responsive, likes to freeze when not in use, no TV connection wires came in the box
There is no simpler way to get the content from your iTunes to your television. The setup is beyond simple. Plug it in your TV via component or HDMI then plug it in. Open iTunes & you are streaming. I use my Apple TV every day, to watch the latest movie trailers, my music videos or even photos from my recent trip, its there for me. With the addition of movie rentals & the ability to purchase...
