    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.

      I did indeed. Apple TV just is not up to the snuff of their other products yet. There is a lot of promise and not much follow through.
