I think a $600 price difference will do that to any device
Someone is Cupertino is flipping a lot of switches today.
Photo Stream right to AppleTV will be really cool.
Apple TV 2 is only $99...a Mac Mini is way more...and makes more more noise..

IOS 6 and Apple TV 3...with the A6 Chip Quad Core chip...hehe
Not a surprising comment coming from someone from Florida (no offense, Florida just isn't a big hockey state). It's too bad, too, because you have a very solid, exciting young team in the Tampa Bay Lightning. You should consider giving hockey a chance... you might be surprised.
The addition of NHL GameCenter Live is awesome for me. I recently purchased the season package, and had been streaming live from my iPad 2, which works pretty well. It's a battery killer, though, so this will be a huge improvement.
Awesome that they have hockey now...maybe the NFL will get their act together...:rolleyes:
