Apple TV

Certainly not new, but vital to remember as a gift this season: Apple TV lets Mac-ophiles enjoy downloaded video, music, and photos on any home theatre system. Connect Apple TV to the HDMI port or component audio/video inputs and you can view all your TV shows, concerts, and other media downloaded from iTunes, Amazon Unbox, and other compatible services. You can also view photo slideshows from Photoshop and other sources. Store up to 50 hours of downloaded video in the Apple TV box, and Apple TV’s wireless system automatically syncs your iTunes library from any computer in the house. Whenever you update your playlist, Apple TV updates wirelessly. This is the perfect companion to your MacBook Pro.
