Perhaps the iOS Remote app on either iPhone or iPad can provide that
interface. Whonose.

Having never seen this new model, it is hard to say what advantages the
Bluetooth keyboard might be present for a voiceover user. Certainly with the
previous Apple TV, which I do own, Bluetooth keyboard navigation is way faster
than using the otherwise supplied remote. Typing in searches is so much more
convenient as is navigating around the screen in general. Until we know how
this touchpad remote is going to work for voice over users, nobody can say how
much better or not better the Bluetooth keyboard support would be. And if the
Siri search is truly reliable, then that's great. But we all know that Siri
sometimes screws up, and in such cases, Shirley typing will be better than
anything a touch screen offers.

I was just reading an article from 9 to 5 Mac which was talking about the
fourth generation Apple TV which is due out soon. One of the things they said
is that this model does not have support for Bluetooth keyboards. I know it has
the new Siri search capability. And it has the new remote control with the
touch panel. But I am still kind of bummed that there is no Bluetooth keyboard
support. Still don't know how this touch panel is going to work out in terms of
navigation with voiceover. I wasn't going to run out and buy one anyway right
at first. But this no Bluetooth deal reinforces that decision. Good luck to the
early adopters.
