Apple TV 2nd Generation Demo + First impressions (Fall 2010) - iOS Vlog 135

After doing my unboxing and the epic story behind the HDMI cable that I had to find and buy at 2 AM, I finally got to sit down with the Apple TV. I hooked it up to my 47 inch Vizio 1080p capable TV and, as noted, it only outputs 720p. No surprise there but I was hoping for some magic. The Apple TV still looks great on my LCD. I would love for it to be as awesome as being able to replace my cable box, well, with netflix and other things I basically can. The pricing on the shows and movies are not for me, I much rather record my shows on my DVR.

Being a fan of the Netflix Watch Instantly feature, this will be a pretty decent addition to my living room, or possibly my desk. Nifty little bugger for $99, full review coming soon.

@pliskin10 Sorry It cannot detect a NAS system.

[justinlowry31]

this is the worst video "demo" ever. "I think it can do this or that" login top Netflix, Flickr, MobileMe and show it. Also, have a Mac OS X computer to demo the streaming. Don't just go through the menus.

[Daltonleegreen]

why would someone pay 100$ just to buy more stuff??

[pliskin10]

Cool review, you think Apple TV can detect a NAS in network? just wondering if i can stream my music and video from my network storage without adding it to iTunes. im using a Easy Store H341 as a network storage. thanks!
