The Apple TV was reviewed by PC Mag recently. The new Apple TV allows you to stream media in to your home such as movies and TV shows.
The video review shows the interface and how everything works on the new service. In terms of how it works, it looks like the previous model. The speed of the interface is quick and playback of the demo films is also pretty much instant from what we can see.
Renting a movie also looks quick too in that you preview a video, click on a buy it button, enter your password and it sits for a few moments and then passes a message saying it is ready for download. [Read more…]

The successful result is shown below! It’s all working: customized Preferences to show battery percentage, Cydia, root shell…the works!
