Yup, here are a few videos I made of it:

This is an overview of it.....



This video shows a iPhone/iPad app that enables you to stream content to your iOS device or straight to the appleTv if you have a DLNA compatible network storage device......



But it's much more useful if you jailbreak the unit. Does so much more.
And here is my jailbreak guide!



Hope you find it useful!

Seeing as we have everything else apple, Im looking at something to attach to the TV and this may be it!
however I quite like the look of that Netflix thing i see for £6 a month!!
can you run that on this or are you stuck with renting films off iTunes?

Just been looking and lovefilm won't work on apple tv , it looks to have newer content than Netflix , but Netflix has better pictures (1080p) and sound (5.1) , so looks like a few pro's and cons if your looking for films...
