I feel the same way about AppleTV.  The hardware looks useful and the
price looks OK ($229 for refurbished unit from Apple).  I'd like to
use one as a MythTV client.  But it requires hacking and probably
copyright violation, so I'll pass.

I guess that Apple has learned, through the iPod, that they want to
own a platform, not sell hardware.  I feel the same way: I want to own
the platform.
