That would be very helpful if you can find it. My theory is that it *is*
turning on because it emits static when I press a button on the remote. It
also emits static when I use it as a receiver in Airfoil. I thought I'd get a
voiceover prompt by power cycling, but that hasn't done the trick.
Probably time to call Apple, but the first step would be to try those
instructions if you can find them and then connect via HDMI and learn what (if
anything) the screen says.
Best regards,
Geoff

There is a way of turning on VoiceOver without sighted assistance, but I
don't remember the trick. I can take a look around to see if I still have the
email if you need it.

a sightling what if anything is displayed.

attempted to install the IOS5 update by going into settings -> general -> check
for updates. The first time it appeared to hang on the update button, but when
I selected it again, got a dialog asking whether I was sure I wanted to quit.
So I let it go for a while and then heard Samantha from the other room. I came
back in and found an okay button but could not ascertain what the message was
(presumably the ubiquitous 3200 error). I again checked for updates and
selected update.

the apple tv but that had no affect -- I waited about two minutes but only
heard the extra static. Also pressing buttons on the remote causes static.
The device does appear to be on my network because its visible to Airfoil, and
transmitting to Apple tv results in additional static. I double checked the
cabling, though none of the hardware had been touched until I power cycled. I
considered connecting via Ethernet, but decided that couldn't be a factor since
the device is visible to the network.
