Hi,
How was the experience? Do you have to wait a long time for a movie to be streamed and be ready to play?

Not until Apple has movie/tv content in the local iTunes store. Which as of now, seems like it’s never going to happen.

I believe there is a hack by Erica Sadun that allows all iOS apps to stream video to the AppleTV2, but I haven’t tried it myself yet.

Not yet. Might get down to doing one during the CNY break.

It’s cool. Movies start playing almost instantaneously. However I think there are still some bugs with regards to home sharing, cause sometimes the AppleTV2 will fail to see my iTunes library.

That’s great. I dont have any home sharing problem and all seemed to work well. Presumed u have also updated to the latest software version. I experienced very slow download streaming speed when I rented movies from App Store. Guess its my slow 1Mbps Singnet broadband speed ..

Yeah well…. when Singtel tells you it’s 1mbps it never is. I have no speed issues on my previous Starhub 8mbps(or izzit 12mbps?) or my current m1 fibre. The home sharing issues also seemed to have fixed themselves with the recent update.

Oh btw, it’s easy to setup US iTunes account so you can start buying and streaming TV seasons such as Glee, Desparate housewife, TopGear, Big brother etc…

You can also rent and watch the latest blockbuster in HD and dobly digital 5.1 with your home theatre system.

Otherwise u can also just stream and watch US news from wall street for free or browse and watch YouTube in HD.
