For the second time since its introduction in 2007, the apple TV has undergone a software-only facelift. The latest 3.0 update includes a snazzy redesign of the user interface and some fun new features, such as internet radio. The basic concept remains unchanged, it plays iTunes and iPhoto content on your HDTV, including standard and high definition movies and TV shows.
You can stream wired or wirelessly from your PC's iTune library or download content directly from iTunes to the hard drive. Add to this integrated Youtube, Flickr, and MobileMe support and apple TV is a compelling purchase. With the 3.0 update, the hardware has remained unchanges. the slick 1.1 x 7.7 x 7.7 inch silver box is mostly unadorned. Since everything is transfered to the device over your network, there is no slot for DVD or CD. Note this : Apple TV only works with wide screen, flat panel HDTVs.
The best part of 3.0 update are the all over redesign of the menus and the inclusion of internet radio, the new interface is a breeze to navigate with the remote. Video looks fantastic for the most part, especially when you opt to view HD rather than standard definition video
