The $100 AppleTV + XBMC really is one of the best HTPCs you can have. For playing digital media it's not only one of the best options but one of the cheapest. Can't wait for AppleTV3 to get a jailbreak.

But it won't play 1080p, correct?

2nd generation AppleTV will play 1080p content, but only output 720. The new AppleTV will output full HD.

I didn't even notice there's a new AppleTV. Superb news!
