Gallery: Apple TV Take 2 software update

After a small delay, Apple has unveiled Apple TV Take 2, a software update that adds many features to the set top box. MacNN today had a chance to explore the update fully, examining the new iTunes movie rentals and store interface, as well as the addition of photo streaming from .Mac and Flickr. Below is a gallery of the new interface and features.

so far. Simspons Movie HD rental took 12 seconds to be "ready to watch" and the whole thing streamed down in less than 30 minutes. so obviously never a hiccup. great 5.1 sound and beautiful picture.

very limited selection of HD titles thus far. we'll see how good they are at expanding the offerings over the coming months.
