[QUOTE="wendymroz, post: 3441639, member: 887271"] Certainly you are familiar with iPad, iPod and iPhone those Apple brand products, but there is still a question about Apple TV, when I first heard that name, I pictured a big screen television with special features in my head, of course, now I know it was an honest mistake. This week the folks at Apple have sent out an update to Apple TV users everywhere that they could have the newest build that addresses several issues found in the version released right alongside the iOS 5 release this October.

For those of you still on a pre-4.4 release, note that everything newer adds several features like Wall Street Journal Live, National Hockey League Content, Photo Stream, AirPlay Mirroring support, and iTunes Trailers. The early Apple TV models had a hard drive that would sync with your computers' iTunes libraries. You could also buy movies from the iTunes store and save them to the Apple TV's hard drive.
