The other week I borrowed (long term) a friends Apple TV and after updating it to the new 1.1 Firmware (with YouTube support) have been playing with it every since.

 Initial Thoughts
The Apple TV certainly has the usual Apple design flair, looking like an Apple MacBook that someone sat on (its flatter and wider). On the back of the Apple TV are the connections for digital & analogue audio, HDMI, network. Full specifications may be found here.

I was just in the middle of writing my review of the Apple TV, when I noticed that there was new update available, taking it from 1.0 to 1.1 (Settings > About menu). You can find the actual update under Settings > Update Software. It takes about 5 minutes to download the update and then the Apple TV asks if you want to install it. If you select yes, it the Apple TV reboots and bingo its finished!

So what’s the biggest change? YouTube that’s what! This has been available on new Apple TVs for about a week and basically lets you watch YouTube on your TV.
