So I went to the store with the intention to buy the Digital av adapter for my Ipad Air. I was quite shocked to find that Apple wants $50 for it (nice one apple), then I noticed that they had the Apple T.V. on sale for $80. Figured why not pay another $30 and have something that I can also use with my iPod/iphone (non lightning devices) without any need for cables.
This thing is great for that purpose but other than that this is a HUGE disappointment. I have a Samsung Smart T.V. so I've seen what can be done with the platform. I think apple has crippled this device on purpose so that when they release their version of the "Smart T.V." they won't have a cheap device in the market that can do the same thing.
If they Added storage and the App Store this device would smoke the competition. But that's not going to happen this is going to be their gateway drug to their T.V. Which is smart on their part but also pretty shady.
