The 7-button aluminum remote (HDTV not included).
With the Apple TV, you can rent thousands of commercial free, high-definition
TV episodes for just 99¢ per episode. Once you rent an episode, you have 30 days
to press Play, then it's yours for the next 48 hours. You can also rent over
7,000 movies with over 3,400 available in HD--and most new releases are
available the same day they're released on DVD. The Apple TV also connects to
your home computer (either Mac or Windows PC), and you'll be able to stream all
your purchased music, TV shows, movies as well as podcasts and photo slideshows
from your computer directly to your HDTV via the Apple TV.
Featuring ultra-fast Wireless-N Wi-Fi networking (as well as a wired Ethernet
connection) and an internal power supply, and the Apple TV offers silent, cool,
very low power operation in an enclosure that's less than four inches square--80
percent smaller than the previous generation. Control the Apple TV using the
included seven-button aluminum Apple Remote, or use your iPhone, iPad, or iPod
touch and the Remote app--a free download from the iTunes App Store.
Coming Soon: Airplay
With Airplay functionality, you'll be able to wirelessly stream music and
video stored on your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad to your HDTV via the Apple TV.
Airplay will be available to mobile devices running the iOS 4.2 (to be released
soon).
