Hello Geoff You don't need the UsB port. You plug the Apple TV into your network, or configure its wifi network and the software is downloaded via the Internet.

I understand that IOS5 will render it possible to update without need to connect to iTunes, but until then, how is this done if the USB port is unavailable? If it is indeed possible to connect to iTunes I assume I could enable voiceOver via the "configure universal access" dialog in iTunes? Are you saying that its possible to turn VO on via the remote? Sorry if I totally misinterpreted your post. I guess the bottom line question is how I can attach to iTunes without the USB cable? Best regards.

You can configure Apple TV using the supplied remote. We plan to do a podcast on this shortly, when Gordon is up to it.

If so, presumably it's not possible to update the IOS version and I will not be able to use it out of the box without getting someone to go into settings -> general -> accessibility? TIA for any clarification and best regards.
