Apple TV is now available for purchase. The Apple Web site on Tuesday morning listed the set-top box as available for shipment in three to five business days. Apple stores confirmed that the box, which is meant to deliver content between a TV and a PC, is so far only available online. Now there’s always something good on TV. With Apple TV, you can enjoy movies, TV shows, music, and podcasts in your iTunes library, plus photos and movie trailers, on your widescreen TV — wirelessly, from your Mac or PC.
The feature that i’m most thrilled about is the AirPort Extreme, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n wireless network (video streaming requires 802.11g/n). It supports draft N, which means more coverage to watch TV anywhere in your house. Oh, and Sony as you can see no one really cares about 1080p not even Apple!
