I am not complaining. But I would like some 720p movie downloads.

Oh and question: what is the hard drive for if the media is coming from the host computer anyway?

I'm new to the home theater market but am looking to invest in equipment that will keep up with the times for a few years. I have been waiting with wallet-in-hand for this product and now I figure I might as well wait.

Apple has underwhelmed me. What happened Stevie? I thought you were going to actually try. The Apple TV UI is the last thing I care about in this product. Sure it looks great and I'd love to have one, but you've half-assed the output and crippled any chance to hook me. Give me a decent output spec and then we'll talk. For now, I'm going to assume you're not serious about giving me a superb HD-quality product. Next time around I'm not going to come running. ]]>Jan 9th 2007 7:43PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/09/itv-becomes-apple-tv/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/09/itv-becomes-apple-tv/
40GB?

You ... wow.. you can't be serious?

Even at 720p that drive is going to fill up in what... about 7 hours?

Massive failure here, really, we're talking failure of Biblical proportions. Wow just wow.
