The Apple TV is a fantastic device and has the potential to be a market changer like the iPod. The biggest missing piece so far is the availability of true HD content from Apple and the iTunes store. This is something I'm sure will change over time as new contracts can be struck with content providers.
HD content played through the Apple TV can be a really big thing due to the confusion we have in the marketplace caused by HD-DVD and Blue-Ray. With the Apple TV we could potentially bypass the need for either of these formats.
Towards that end my company is going to start a site for indie produces to share their HD work with all the Apple TV owners out there. The site will be up and running in about a week or so at www.HD4AppleTV.com

"I'm a college student looking for a new laptop, but almost all of my media I receive digitally. I'm looking for a laptop, not a netbook, without an optical drive, and budget sensitive. The optical drive will just be a waste of space, when I can have thinner laptop. What's out there?"
