The Apple TV: 8 GB of internal memory, several components common with the iPad and... the devs are active

L’Apple TVa
is the subject of adismantling always completeand superbly
photographed by the team ofiFixitwho has already exposed to us the
insides of iPhones especially in the past. This is the opportunity to see
what the Apple TV contains and shares with other products
d’Apple
, in particular iPhones and other iPads:

  • The Apple TV works with aA4 processorand a chip
    WiFi which seem to be thesame as that used in
    the iPad
    . This processor is also found in theiPod Touch
    V4
    (but not in iPhone 4)
  • One of the major lessons is also the presence, not communicated
    officially, of a8 GB internal memory. She is
    probably used to "cache" when streaming.
    But a significant amount of memory like this allows us to consider
    the possibility ofinstall iOS apps, whether
    officially after updating its firmware(Steve
    Jobs had left the door open on this subject, cf.cet
    article
    of BusinessWeek) or via thecommunity of
    developers
    who works on this subject (see at the end of the post a
    Apple TV jailbreak video).
  • Andemplacementformemory
    additional
    is available on the electronic card. Is it for
    a future model or a final choice not to carry more than 8 GB?
  • The Apple TV also has256 Mo of RAM, either the
    same quantity as that present on theiPadcurrent.

Information from
Engaged
indicates that the Apple TV, which cannot display HD movies
1080p, is nevertheless capable of playing movies in this resolution and
displays in 720p, this will therefore avoid re-encoding your media!

Finally, it seems that the jailbreak community is not hanging around with their
new toy, they have already jailbroken the Apple TV via the SHAtter solution,
as seen in these images (source
