Seems like a cool toy at $150. Certainly improves on the $99 Apple TV we already have.

Don't see why anyone would get the 64 GB one.

Protip: You can watch pirated TV shows on the Apple TV.

This is probably unrealistic, but I'd buy an AppleTV in an instant if it could natively play MKVs off a hard drive or USB stick.

But you can switch to a MP4 container without transcoding pretty easily? :confused:

If I had too much money, I'd buy the AppleTV and an MFI joypad so I could play the definitive Sonic 1 and 2 games.

Rick: Feb 23, 2004; When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

Is there an over/under on the probability that the entry iPhone 6s will be 16GB again. I can't understand why this is such a big deal for apple. You can literally buy a 120GB micro SD card for $50. Why in the YOOL 2015 is this still a $100 step up program?

Because a huge segment of the market don't have anything but the OS on their phone.

I'm still sad that the iPhone 6C isn't a real thing. I want my 4" iPhone 6 badly! I'd get it in a split second! 4" smartphone is still superior... but it will never exist, except for awful low-end Android phones.
