Q: Why does the apple tv not support WPA-Enterprise?

We want to roll out apple tv's to our screens throughout our stores for showing slide shows, ads etc, as well as in our board rooms on our projectors for easy airplay output options for our mobile devices.  It makes it very difficult and less secure if the apple tvs don't support the entprise level security.  With the internal chipworks virtually the same as other iOS devices, why doesn't the apple tv support it and other iOS devices do? 

 

Apple : Please add this funcationality asap!

    This is a user forum.  There is no one here from Apple to answer or support design dessions.  Apple calls AppleTV a "hobby" rather than a product.  They have never made it a major focus so if they are cutting courners it is not suprising.  ATV is deffinetly not an enterprise grade product.  It is ment for home use so I am not supprised it does not support it.
