My husband finally asked the question... "So what's on your Christmas list?" Wow! Things have been so busy, I have not really stopped to think about it. Maybe an Iphone alarm docking station would be nice...or what about a new Apple TV? So I immediately decided to check it out to see if it is something I might find useful. As you can see from the picture, it easily fits into the palm of your hand and can do so much. So many possibilities!You can project home videos, movies, tv programs, photos, youtube videos, apps, etc. onto your widescreen tv. You can also access your photos and videos in the Apple icloud through the Apple TV.
Since I got my Iphone last year, I look back and wonder how I ever lived without it. I am so connected now. I see so many others with Iphones, as well, and I am always sharing my favorite apps with friends and colleagues. Wouldn't it be great to share some of these apps with parents and colleagues in some kind of inservice or staff development!
What better way than with the Apple TV! The Apple TV projects the screen of your Iphone up onto a widescreen tv. Check out the Youtube video below for a quick demonstration of Apple TV Airplay Mirroring. The drawback seems to be that this feature is only available to the newer Iphone 4s and the Ipad 2.

Who knew??? I sure did not! Thanks for sharing the info on the Apple tv. Wonder if Santa will pick up one of those for me?
