AppleTV Hits the Streets

Posted by samzenpus on from the apple-toaster-available-soon dept.

Stories are starting to pop up all over the web about the AppleTV, which evidently means that Apple has set loose the hounds of marketing and the units are (or will be tomorrow) available in Apple stores. Still no word on whether or not it plays DivX files. That will be the key to me purchasing one.

    Then you pull up a seat, put up your feet, and pick up the included Apple Remote to play your movie on TV. Give yourself a hand: You've just changed the way you watch digital media.
    Hmmm.

    Will the remote only have one button?

    Personally I will be waiting for GoogleTV, where it streams 24/7 YouTube videos produced by amateurs.

    Obviously with Google's advanced technology in search and category, these videos will be sorted into different categories, genre, rating etc.

    Thanks for your worthless post. You may want to delay hitting the submit button until you have something substantial to say.

    Correction: Apple generally produces high-quality hardware six months after the product was launched. Until then, the early adopters are just one big beta team.
