    any help woudl be great as i woudl like to buy todya and put the beomedia on ebay.

    also can i view my albums on the screen by cover all at once to help choosing music

    how is the control from a itouch.

    edit: there seem to be 2 different models availible, 40GB and 160GB for locally stored content, what is this for???

    Hi

     

    I have BM1 since "beta" version and now I have bought AppleTv

    Everything is far better, except you can not watch it in Link room (if you use HDMI/Component)

    But if you have iPod/iPhone you can pilot it

    The control from iPod/iPhone is great

    You can stream from PC/Mac or have all your content on AppleTv hdd.

    Thats the only differents from 40 and 160GB

    I use AppleTv flash and I have now 1 TB for all my mediafiles

    And this is not a "crack" that void your warrenty
