Do I officially kiss my dreams of a soon-coming 1080p Apple TV goodbye?

When they say "All-new" do they actually mean new, or just new to them since they haven't had one before? Would be awesome if they did update to a 1080p capable version.

I love the new Apple TV. One of my favorite Apple products ever. If you already own an iDevice and you don't have an Apple TV yet, you don't know what you're missing. Airplay is really that good. It brings a whole lot more value to the iDevices you already own.

Damn, I was really hoping for a 1080p version. This doesn't bode well.
