TV from Apple

Apple TV(ITV) is a set-top box being developed by Apple with a planned release date of February 2007. The Apple TV was announced by Steve Jobs during the keynote speech at the 2007 Macworld Expo in San Francisco on January 9, 2007.It enables digital content to be streamed from any computer running Mac OS X or Microsoft Windows capable of running streamed media via iTunes onto an enhanced-definition or high-definition widescreen TV television.more

AppleTV supports 802.11b/g and even 802.11n for wireless streaming, and the device also supports Ethernet. Users can move videos to the AppleTV's 40GB hard drive using iTunes, allowing users to improve streaming support by pre-loading content onto the device. The device can also stream content from other sites like Apple.com. Jobs' presentation made the streaming support look slick. You can auto-stream unwatched movies or recent purchases, and it's all saved on the AppleTV hard drive for later playback.
