Default Just arrived in the post - Apple Tv :)

Been foing some research and it looks like we might even be able to get rid of the V+ box no as well as the xbox 360.

I can wait to get this going running to it's full potential!

How will it rid you of Virgin? I thought it was mainly for rented/bought films and tv series.

Yes, it is mainly for rented/bought films and TV series... The same way that an iPod, iPhone or ipad is mainly for playing music/films or TV programs etc.

In theory when you Jailbreak said products you can (as far as I am aware) do so much more without the limitations of specific softwear.

Take a look at AirPlay. You can push Audio, Video and Apps to the Apple TV.

I've got an Apple TV but never really used it.

Can someone in the know explain the possibilities with this device further than the basic features of movies rental and streaming from your Mac

Yes. I never really used any of them for hardcore gaming. Not since I stopped staying up past 10 and smoking the green stuff.

It's all cups of tea and movies now
