RE: [WISPA] Anyone Seen AppleTV yet ?
I've got a great case study I'm gonna write up and PDF soon. My brother-in-law was a yankee fan. They decided to church plant in Prague - yep, czech... He bought an extra receiver for my dad's directv, plugged it into a slingbox, plugged it into dad's wireless connection (trango 900 - 22 miles from my tower, then 12 from there to my noc) and watches yankee games on the Yes network from prague through my network :) works awesome - because of the time difference, I sometimes pull up DirecTV on my laptop during the day through the sling player. Uses about 120k right now on a constant stream to get good quality tv. If I let it go unlimited it'll eat up to 768k R -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rich Comroe Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2007 11:04 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Anyone Seen AppleTV yet ?

Basically, it lets you watch purchased content from iTunes on your television. iTunes has sold TV shows for quite a while now. If it tried to stream content, there might be an issue, but AFAIK it doesn't do that. Heck, aside from the iTunes "hook," a soft-modded Xbox makes a much better media center, and you can probably find one at your local pawn shop for fifty bucks. :-) David Smith MVN.net -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/ -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/
