DIVX, anyone?

Ok this is all well and grand, but will it play DIVX without having to install third party software and hours of troubleshooting and what not?

Big Screen w/Big Rez?

What kind of vid card? The price that has been reported thus far is only half of the price of a vid card capable of providing a superb .m4v image. What about HDCP or DRM compatibilty? AppleTV sounds like a great idea, but I am eager for more tech stats.

Rather limited and dull

Another great interface on a pretty product limited to iTunes content. I get that Apple needs to make money from the iTunes store, but this is not the only source of content for most users. Like the almost-great Airport Express, I want to stream any format my laptop can play through this. While I'm being greedy, how about an OTA ATSC tuner with PVR functions too? Slingbox-ish place shifting? Safari? Then I would understand the oohing and ahhing. Now who has a Wii for sale?
