AppleTV

In my continuing quest to love all things Apple (hell, I've even started EATING Apples for the first time since I was a kid), I got the AppleTV last night.

Superb bit of kit - anyone else got one?

I've "Boxee'd" it already and that works well, though must admit I prefer XBMC for the streaming side of things.

Anyone got any info about using 'Hulu' on it from the UK? Read ages ago about having to set up a US Proxy?

I don't get how it works.

Aside from having stuff on iTunes or jailbreaking it, how do you watch TV programmes?

You 'dont' as such - its a media streamer really (with a HDD to) and out of the box, you can only view stuff on iTunes (online), YouTube, or stuff from your own iTunes (music and vids).

Once you 'jailbreak' it, you then get access to ALL content on your PC/Laptop, BBC iPlayer and others.

I guess the 'TV' part is a bit deceptive, although it is connected to your TV
