jlmodell Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I think its a set-top box that you place in your living room that connects to your other macs via 802.11 to stream tv/music/movies from them to your tv (not necessarily a mac mini.. they prolly just like the form factor for now). ... Why didnt engadget get a picture of the nano =\ -- Since some people connect their mac mini to their tv.. why not offer some software that lets you boot into that "next gen frontrow" interface-- of course they probably wont, $299 is probably more attractive lol.

Chicane-UK Veteran Posted September 12, 2006 Veteran Share Posted September 12, 2006 Crikey! Will only cost $299! Thats not bad! Just needs iTunes 7 on PC or Mac! Price is $299, its better to buy a 360 Depends what you want in your lounge - the Xbox360 is fairly chunky.. that and if all your stuff has been bought through the iTMS then whats the use of an Xbox360? It all comes down to who you have decided to buy your content from and how you want to access it...

jackwanders Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 $299? As soon as someone writes XBMC for the Xbox360, you might as well just buy that instead. It'll probably handle more file types and it'll play HD games too.

AJerman Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Haha, what are the chances that my 5g iPod just messed up? I thought I was having some hard drive issues the other day so I booted it into the diagnostics menu and then it locked up. Sadly it will probably be fine when the battery dies and is recharged again... but now I get to go a few days without my iPod :angry: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/491875-apple-event-on-september-12th/page/12/#findComment-587876531 Share on other sites More sharing options...
