Anyone figured out how to get it running on an iMac yet tho? Pretty sure the older versions were hacked onto full macs at one point...

Kind of important issue that you need to update iTunes on a remote computer to 9.0.2 for AppleTV 3.0 to work with it. Tried updating my ATV first, only to find it simply won't play music anymore. Hopefully it will be working in a couple minutes once iTunes is updated.

I still watch craigslist hoping someone is going to sell one locally for ridiculously cheap, if you decide to sell let me know what you want for it, I still want to play with one of these guys

Wow, USPS delivered it today and it took me minutes to hook it up via wireless, I'm LOVING the internet radio!
The video quality seems a little lower than the PS3 HD videos but not bad. I need to calibrate this TV to really get a good look at it quality wise.

I'm not happy with v3. It's slooooow on shared music and has had some glitches. The other day, when I hadn't used it for maybe a week, I had to restart it to access my shared music library. I'm also baffled why there has never been a true ability to shutdown or restart. You have to unplug it.

Yeah, when I fired it up today I was notified there was an update, which had already been downloaded and was ready to install if I chose. I guess that was another change from v.2.
Anyway, after updating, getting an error and having to restart (which it actually did just by hitting play/pause) it is working more smoothly. Clearly there was something wrong with the original v.3 to have another update so fast.
