He said Apple TV not iPod on the TV. The Apple TV supports resolutions up to 1280x720 with a frame rate of 24fps (30fps at lower resolutions) over HDMI. iPods don't support HDMI. | |

| The ATI device will only be available in pre-build computers Before anyone gets too excited about the ATI TV Wonder OCUR tuner, see this article: »www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=3609
ATI's device will only be available in pre-build, pre-configured computers.
With ATI killing off the AIW line and now this, I hope other manufactures can step up to the plate affordable user installable PC cards that add cablecard support. Once they come out with the bi-directional cablecards that is.
I would also expect any cablecard tuners that do come out to be heavily loaded/locked down with DRM. | |

| Re: Dead its only dead because cable companies made it that way. The simplicity for Cablecard is great for a second TV. I already have a cable box DVR, I just need to see all the channels on my second TV without a cluncky cable box. CableCARD is great for that. | |
