iFixit did only one of its unreal tear-downs today – analyzing the hardware of a freshly-shipped Apple TV — and surmisal what they found? 8 GB of Flash storage. Apple hasn’t publically revealed how such Flash element the figure is packing, mostly because it’s marketed as a moving media player.

Users are questionable to lease streams straightforward from Apple or endeavor backwards topical content from their Mac or PC, with an choice to instruction videos straightforward from an iPad reaching in November. But they’re not questionable to spend these files on their Apple TV.

So ground would the figure hit 8 GB of storage? For apps, of course. Eight GB isn’t each and every that such if you poverty to accumulation HD recording files, but it’s plentitude to spend apps. In fact, most iPhone app developers essay to ready their apps low 10 MB, because anything large would hit to be downloaded via Wi-Fi, as anti to finished AT&T’s 3G network. Apple TV app developers apparently won’t hit to care with constraints aforementioned these, but the underway iPhone / iPad app expanse shows you crapper do plentitude with rattling little.

iFixit also institute there is expanse for added Flash module defect for forthcoming models. Furthermore, the element of the Apple TV is unco kindred to that of the iPad, featuring the aforementioned processor, Flash module defect and Wi-Fi defect set.

This effectuation the Apple TV is technically confident of streaming apps kindred to those currently acquirable on the iPad, especially presented that the Apple TV does, in fact, seem to separate the aforementioned OS as the iPad. Members of the jailbreak accord were healthy to support yesterday that Apple TV runs a savor of iOS 4.1.
