Exactly where I bought mine 6 months ago and, as usual with my Refurb store purchases, the product has performed without incident.

My Apple TV 2... Since canceling NetFlix is just sitting there hanging out. I'm thinking it might be time to get something that can do Netflix, streaming amazon and Hulu... I should probably teach the family how to stream iTunes from the iMac to it.

Apple really needs to add some features.

Give that Apple TV to me, or someone here, I already own two, and would use another, for my 400+ custom movie library.

Hulu sucks, Amazon is said to be decent. None of them touch Netflix, iTunes, and Apple's inherent iOS benefits, at that price.

Thanks, I ordered one!

Apple TV 2's are bringing $125-180 on ebay because they can be jailbroken. I may just sell mine and make this one a cheap upgrade.

If you have the time, and don't mind some work in terminal, jailbreaking is pretty cool and adds a lot of features through an XBMC install. Hulu, Amazon VOD, and FreeCable, etc.

The 1080p model can't be jailbroken?

While that is true, Apple should add more supported content.

For big screen viewing, a $50 Roku is a rather nice approximation of the Apple TV experience (excepting AirPlay of course). Amazon rentals and purchasing for TV/movies roughly equivalent to iTunes, Netflix, plus all the other private/public channels.

Nope. There is no jailbreak yet for A5 devices.
