Apple Tv Price Drop
$100 price drop the 160GB version is now $229 in the US also they have got rid of the 40GB version.
On the UK Apple store the 40GB is still there but with 2-3 weeks delivery time. Mabey Apple are just trying to get rid of there stock before they remove it.

The site doesn't list any refurbs either. Would have picked up a 40GB if it was cheap enough.

Is Apple TV really worth it? I have my Mac hooked up to my widescreen tv using the HDMI cable and it works fine. What would the additional benefits be?
I control the mac using rowmote pro, so I dont even have to leave the sofa! lol |

Not many benefits over that setup... I guess the only one would be the interface is designed for use with a Tv and remote... And you also would not have to have your mac tied down to your tv.

Minidisplayport->DVI adapter
then a DVI->HDMI cable, or if you have a standard HDMI cable already that you want to use, a DVI-HDMI adapter. like this:  good ole apple and their proprietary connections...
