    Apple announces 160GB Apple TV, YouTube deal

    Um, great. Apple TV gets two new features, neither of which is higher quality video, even though they "require" hi definition tvs. Boo. How about fixing the Achilles heel rather than adding storage for more grainy video and a youtube plugin?

    Quoted: Immediately after Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ demonstration of an Apple TV running YouTube videos at the All Things Digital Conference in Carlsbad, California, Apple formally announced the partnership via press release, along with an updated 160GB hard disk-ready version of Apple TV for a price of $399. The 160GB version of Apple TV will store up to 200 hours of video, 36,000 songs, 25,000 photos, or a combination thereof, promising four times the capacity of the original Apple TV at a $100 premium.

    Why Apple TV is a dud - June 11, 2007

    A negative review of the new Apple TV. I have to admit that I think it's a flawed product as it is right now as well. We'll have to see if Apple has a better v2 up its sleeve or if this is one of those items that will end up killed by other competitors doing it better. Tivo and Comcast are both building compelling experiences in the same space.

    Quoted: Let's pause for a moment amid the worshipful buzz before the launch of Apple's iPhone in June to consider the heretical notion that Steve Jobs might be promising more than he can deliver.
