Hi Steve. I had some sighted help, and she told me that I maybe had to have
an IPhone, but I'M GLAd I don't. I'll have to see what I can do. I plan to
get an IPhone at some point, but I just thought I'd see what I could do
presently. oD

Gary,
Have you gotten it connected with your WI FI network? If so, what kind of
problems are you running into? It is good to get an Apple-ID, and I think
some of its functionality depends on you having an Apple-
ID. I do not know if that ID acts as a gateway into YouTube and
Podcasting or not, but it might. You do not need an iPhone to get an
Apple ID, though. If you use iTunes, you already have an Apple ID.
Since you can get an Apple ID with an iPhone, that might be what was being
thought of, but as stated, you don't need an iPhone to get an Apple ID.
It is very nice to have access to iTunes with the Apple TV,
so creating an iTunes account when you get an Apple ID is also a good
idea. There are a lot of inexpensive movies and TV shows to rent on
iTunes, but there is also some free stuff. Using the keyboard for
searching can be done with the little remote, but it is much easier with a
BlueTooth keyboard. This is something else to consider. The Apple TV
supports something called Air Play that lets other apple devices,
iPhones, iPods, etc., play music through the apple TV. This is handy but
certainly not a must to enjoy the Apple TV.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Of course it isn't true, absolute twaddle, utter piffle, nothing but
flapdoodle <smile>.

have to buy an IPhone, in order to make it work. Is that true?
