It sounds pretty exciting -- and is the first box to offer tru eon-demand (instant) viewing. I imagine Apple will be scrambling to do the same for the Apple TV. <br><br>Apple's new box is an interesting comparison. It has a lot more features, and a lot of people already use iTunes. I think the Vudu will have to come on strong to unseat that early advtange. <br><br>Plus, the Apple TV was out first, allowing it to get positive reviews that people have seen. Pieces like Shelly Palmer's "Apple TV - Just What the Doctor Ordered":<br><a href="http://advancedmediacommittee.typepad.com/emmyadvancedmedia/2007/04/appletv_just_wh.html%22" rel="nofollow">http://advancedmediacommittee.typepad.com/emmya...</a><br><br>There's something to be said for "mindshare" -- though, with TiVo as the precedent, maybe it's not everything. (I love it, but most people just get the cable box.)<br><br>JenniferJenniferMon, 30 Apr 2007 17:25:34 -0000
