The Apple TV is still the exact same minimalist masterwork—deserving of a spot at the MoMA someday. It's unchanged from its prior form, and just as easy to set up: plug in the juice, hook up the HDMI, and you're in business. The equally minimalist remote,
Most of the way ain't all of the way. Streaming a file the size of a full Blu-ray movie just isn't feasible with today's internet speeds, unless you're using the WiFi at Los Alamos or sleeping with the cable guy or something. Apple has to cut corners usin
Dead-simple user interface and setup, Attractive, unobtrusive design, AirPlay makes screen mirroring a snap
Remote lacks QWERTY keyboard, needs line of sight, Lacks major streaming services like Hulu Plus, Pandora, Sometimes sluggish browsing, Requires iTunes for network sharing
Short of AirPlay and an idiot-proof interface, the current Apple TV offers little that can’t be found elsewhere, and lacks plenty that can. ...
