The Apple TV in action – It’s everything Apple but nothing new

Filed under: , , ,

Apple LogoI was a bit disappointed with the Apple TV to say the least but I have to say it was nice to see RocketBoom being shown on a full screen TV set via the Apple TV, although the Apple TV is of course one of the many products that can do this.

The video below shows the Apple TV in action and it looks and smells all Apple-ey. It’s small, looks good next to your TV set, and has a friendly user interface that my girlfriend could even figure out.

It was of course expected that Apple would deliver a user friendly, fashionable device, but its just a shame the Apple TV is all about getting you to buy from the iTunes store, while also lacking many much needed features that can be found elsewhere.

I don’t think Apple will be threatening TiVo and the Cable companies just yet.
