AppleTV Take 2 is OUT! 


I've been busy all day, just happened to stop to think about that it is a Tuesday and that is Apple Update Day, so checking for new updates on AppleTV indicated new software - hallelujah! Downloading now, but I see others have already been dilligently on it -

Apple TV (take 2), take two - Engadget

Bonus geekery - picture above taken with iPhone, emailed to self, yadda yadda...

Mike I'm a huge fan and have personally recommended the site to maybe 30-40 editors, assistant editors, producers, managers and other assorted tech heads but I'm about to throw in the towel. Come on, the iTV is a consumer item and be honest, if it wasn't made by Apple you probably wouldn't even own one yet alone fill this blog with it? (I had hoped that we'd be spared when you told us you had started a "Hacking iTV" or something site a while ago)
The fanboy nature of your site has always been a bit of a bugbear for me and it's usually something I temper my recommendations to others with but this is finally too much, Apple is a greedy corporation just like any other, the only "HDForIndies" thing about them was that they allowed us edit formats on a system for $5k that Avid would have charged at least $50k for. Please get back on track or rename the site "FanboysLuvApple.com", then I can call it a day and forget about this site because I really don't see how taking a snap of your new iTV interface on your iPhone relates to trying to come to grips with the latest FCP bug, which raid controller to purchase or how to set-up a camera I've never seen before? (all things I've been grateful to your site for in the past) The lack of interest in your recent posts speaks for itself. I know I'm not in a hurry check in again.

PS I've really been a huge fan, I've been recommending this site for a long time, I've been over to ProVideoCoalition site too and admire your work there, I just hate to see this site descend into an apple fetish site.
