"You'll be able to re-download movies you've purchased on any device, and movies and TV shows now support 1080p."


"Supports 1080p with a "streamlined new user interface."

According to a blog site I just read:


"Owners of the second-generation Apple TV will be able to access the new user interface with a free software update scheduled to become available today. 1080p video playback will remain exclusive to the new Apple TV."

I would not be surprised.


May or may not be a good thing.


The A4 is powerful enough to handle a slightly different GUI arrangement, let's just hope it doesn't bring a size overhead that will diminish memory resources used for other things.


I couldn't see anything obvious on the new AppleTV page earlier, but they do tend to mention software updates there if there's one available when a big interface change takes place.


Both run iOS and should be able to support the new software unlike the old AppleTV 1.
