Apple tv bargain

What's the hype about Apple TV please elaborate.

It's like a Roku media player.
Stream wireless content over ADSL.
Allows services such as HULU and Netflix to be streamed directly to the device.

It's essentially a media streaming device.
 
HAH! just refreshed it and it is seemingly not available anymore. Well done, Standard Bank!
 
It's back, but this time at R798. Still a bargain, I guess.

I currently use my PS3 to stream stuff to my TV. Will this gadget make my life better?
 
I have 1 in my trolley. not sure if i need it though, have a WD live tv just lying around doing nothing much. If it can be jailbroken with XBMC then we are talking business
 
Can Apply TV 3 be jailbroken? and if so how complicated is the process?

No jailbreak for the ATV3. You'd have to shop around for a ATV2 for that. Jailbreaking is pretty simple but the jailbreaks are taking longer and longer to roll out. Apple's chipsets have become really difficult to crack.
That said, I love my ATV3. Have the US iTunes Store, Netflix, Hulu and my whole house running on it... I think they are really good mediators.
The regular pricing is around R1200,00 but be aware, you'll need an HDMI cable for the device (it's not included), so plan to spend another R200 or so in addition to that R798,00
