Apple ships Apple TV
Following a series of delays, Apple early Tuesday morning began notifying customers that it has shipped Apple TV, its set-top device device that brings an iTunes library — movies, TV shows, music, and podcasts — plus movie trailers from Apple.com on any compatible television. The company provided customers who placed early orders with a packaging tracking number and a delivery date of later this week. The shipment notice, using FedEx delivery services, indicated a March 20, 2007 ship date with an estimated arrival of March 23. Apple has also updated the Apple Store to reflect a 3-5 day shipment for new orders. Initial tracking details report that package data has been sent to the carrier and that expedited delivery would use FedEx Direct IP distribution (which the company has used many times in the past for direct factory-to-customer delivery), but no further data was available.
False?

Customers have reported HDM-DVI cables and the like are shipping. Don't be too sure about Apple TVs shipping yet.

It's not Apple Computer

I am just a bit surprised, though I admit it is about the most nitpicky I could possibly be, that a site as credible as MacNN would incorrectly name Apple, Inc. as Apple Computer in an article. That name is SO January...

Got my HDMI-DVI cable a month ago, but the shipping date for AppleTV was just bumped another week (it was due to ship today!). Bummer.

Where's the 720p?
03/20, 07:54am reply
According to external sources, the videos currently being sold on the iTunes store are still 640 x 480.
When is the 720p coming and will Apple make the distinction on the iTunes store?
