The Unofficial Apple Weblog has an excellent post about the possibility of apps for the Apple TV, much in the same way Apple introduced apps for the iPhone. I for one think that the Apple TV is ripe for this kind of expandability. Why not an app for video services other then You Tube? Why not a Web Browser App?

Head on over to TUAW for the entire post.

For those of you that are interested, some of us at ATVJ will be attending Comic-Con this year. We’ll be there starting tonight for preview night thru Saturday. All though we won’t be blogging specifically about each event, you can head over to our ATVJ Comic-Con Flickr page where we will be uploading photos as we make our way through the Convention Center. We’ll try and make sure to cover a little bit of everything for everyone to see, but if you want to see something specific, leave a comment and we’ll do our best to grab the shot.

For those brave souls who like to live on the cutting edge of functionality for the Apple TV, aTV is back with a new and improved 3.2 version. With 3.2 you get a new graphical installer interface, plugin selection option, FTP transfer support, external USB hard drive support plus support for the latest Apple TV 2.1 software.

I have to admit, being a non-terminal guy myself, the improved installer has my interest peaked. I may be watching the comments and feedback for this version carefully as I might just give it a shot this time.

For all the details head on over to the aTV product page.
