I haven't seen a single product that "integrated" an ipod in a nice way besides the USB to Ipod cable. It sounds to me like 2 products maybe, a new audio system and then a "dock" that integrates the Ipod into the new Beomedia universe.

Check if the ATV is powerfull enough to run Iplayer. I know Hulu and Netflix cause problems as the ATV is a bit undersized. ATV on its own is in my opinion worthless

I am awaiting "gapless" playing and a 2 way remote. Other then that I don't see anything wrong with it at this point. Maybe the christmas music issue but I would just remove that from the product during off season .... not having gapless though and no 2 way is a show stopper. I have looked at Sonos but do not like the remote. Also I wouldn't

If it looks like the one in the A8 I would want that.

For 375$ I probably pick one up as well even if it just toots ...... It looks interesting .......
