Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
The $99 apple Tv, I think it is model 2, has voice over. It didn't come out of the box with it though. When I hooked it up, it had to run an update before VoiceOver was there.

Thats true. This one was shipped from China or just outside of Hong Kong. Once the update was applied, it worked like gang busters.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
Hello Kevin, I've always been curious as to what the TV is really for. I want one just to have one, but since Denmark doesn't even have movies anymore much less rentals, I'm not sure it'd even be useful. I'm tempted to buy one just to have one, but not sure if it'd even be worth it for me. I guess by the time we finally get an accessible TV that talks, I'd be happy. I like channels more than renting my movies. I don't mind renting at all, but sometimes, I just like to flick through channels and attempt to find something that isn't garbage.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
If you get netflicks at some point in time, you'll be in great shape. That really makes a difference for me. An apple TV just gives you a few more options and you can operate it from a remote on your TV. My biggest issue now is that the remote wants to interact with my mini too, so I have to watch hitting enter on the remote or I'll have music and movies going at the same time.

I can't give to much info yet because our Dish service won't be installed until Saturday, but the latest generation of Dish DVR boxes will give you complete control via the Dish iPhone app. If you have an iPhone or iPod touch that is. You can search for programs set recordings and even locate and start playback of programs which are stored on your dvr all from your I device. I will report more after Saturday if people are interested.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
Once VoiceOver is up and running, you have multiple menus. From far left to right: In Movies, Under this title are top movies, and different ways of selecting movies from the apple store using itunes In TV Shows, This is the same but a list of TV shows to get from ITunes In Internet, This has YouTube, Netflix, Flicker and so on In ComPuters, Has an option to turn on home sharing In Settings, Has different setup stuff to look through Hope this helps Kev On Dec 2, 2010, at 11:58 AM, Marlaina Lieberg wrote: but what does VoiceOver tell you, I mean are there menus or something again, sorry to be so dang dense, :) Marlaina On Dec 2, 2010, at 4:56 AM, Kevin Mattingly wrote: The $99 apple Tv, I think it is model 2, has voice over.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
It sure does; I am in the apple store right now and I continue to be impressed with how these folks really get working with blind folks. My iPhone 4 is really messed up and this guy knows VO and didn't even shrink and make me turn it off. Nor did he do so when I popped my Air up on the counter so we could make sure that I had all the info on the Air I need before they do a mega major restore of my poor dear sick iPhone! I am so mpressed with the people at the South Center Takwila Washington Store! Marlaina On Dec 2, 2010, at 12:44 PM, Kevin Mattingly wrote: Once VoiceOver is up and running, you have multiple menus.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
It is a little box about the size of a DSL modem and it streams content to your HD TV from the Internet, via Netflicks or ITunes or YouTube.. You're on your own for your room name. I tend to stick with standards myself so man cave or man room is perfect. If I wanted to go off the beaten path, I might call it the man relm or maybe even Kev's Bar and Tap room.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
I notice that there is an Apple TV and an Apple TV with 160 GB harddrive. The specs don't talk about a harddrive. Does the Apple TV come with a harddrive and, if so, what size is it?

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
Ok, so what part does voiceover play and if I get the one without a hard drive, that is the model with vo? Sorry if these are stupid questions, but I have gigs and gigs of music which I can't play on our Bose, and this looks like it might solve my problem. Before I go to the Apple store, I want to at least look like I know what I'm talking about. Does vo speak menus? Could I get them to show me that in the store? Again, sorry for so many questions. I don't know how you people keep all this stuff straight, LOL!

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
Just to expand on this, DirectTV is a different type of thing. Apple TV lets you aggregate your digital media on to your TV where something like a DirecTV or Dish box grabs live content over the air or from space.

Re: OK, Apple TV is Here and a handy Remote
Dish has an IPhone app that's free. Just attach your receiver via ethernet cable to your router, download and install the app, and you've got control of your DVR.
