I have a Netflix & Youtube account & I can use that AirPlay thing for iplayer etc from my phone. I just think it looks so cool being able to mirror your phone & have all my music etc streamed through it. Might pick on up this afternoon

Well I picked the 3rd generation Apple TV this afternoon & I have to say, I'm very impressed! I'm typing this just now mirroring my iPhone on my livingroom TV & it's really clear although it doesn't show as full screen (black borders at top & bottom. It nothing major.)

Tried iplayer, 4od, 5 on demand & ITV player, they work no problem but Sky Go isn't compatible. Tune In Radio app works fine too & large screen Angry Birds through surround sound is awesome.

iTunes integration is fantastic & showing the cover art on screen is a nice touch.

Netflix & YouTube apps included are fine too.

Overall, a great piece of kit

Thumbs up to Apple for having some accessiblity features on the Apple TV. See RNIB Accessible TV Devices page

Have this ordered from Apple, it's been dispatched and can't wait to get it now after reading your post

Cheers OMTT

I have an Ipad 1 and iphone 3gs and am considering Apple tv. As I understand it I'd be able to airplay iplayer through the ipad but I wouldn't be able to do the same with itv player or 4od. Is that right?

ITV & 4OD only transmit sound for me using AirPlay (iPhone 4S) but transmit video too with mirroring (think that's only avail le on iPad 2, 3 & iPhone 4S though?)

Saying that, ITV player wasn't working with mirroring either, I was getting errors trying to play a video.

Hopefully the app developers will release an update enabling AirPlay
