    About 3 minutes to go. Quick question: WIll I still have access to my MobileMe Gallery, or just my iCloud Photo Stream?

    So can you mirror from an Iphone 4 or not...... Keynote suggested that you could (which was before the 4S Announcement) ...... but subsequent references refer to Ipad and Iphone 4S only.. Having just got an apple tv 2 Im going to to be well pissed off if I cant mirror from my Iphone 4!!!!!!!!!!!

      I sure hope so!! I'll be pissed as well. Still have a year to go on my contract for my iPhone 4.

    • Mike says:

      I doubt iPhone 4 will mirror to the AppleTV. The original iPad can't, and it's basically the same hardware as an iPhone 4. The iPad 2 and 4S both have A5 processors, and I'm guessing that added oomph from the A5 is what allows full-device mirroring. You'll probably be stuck with content-streaming only on an iPhone 4.

    You add your account for PhotoStream. Works perfect !

  4. Mike says:

    It probably won't, but I will cross my fingers for the addition of Hulu+. I hate having to use my PS3 (video always lags) and Xbox (the interface is horrid) to watch Hulu on my TV.

  5. So it supports wireless mirroring and photo stream? Sweet!

    i really would like to able to use the mirror for my ipad2 but i dont want to loose the jailbreak as that the main function i have for screaming all my content to my main tv.

    I'm not seeing the update and am on the latest iOS 5 beta software for Apple TV 2. Restoring through iTunes caused an error. Anyone else having trouble?

    Should be able to airplay Hulu using the 4S though.

    First MLB, now NHL. Life is good... two more sports to go. Here's to hoping it works in the US as well as Canada.
