Re: Basic Apple TV review and setup
There should be material on www.applevis.com. Just go there, type "apple tv" into the search box, and see what you find. I know there is at least one podcast and a review, and probably more besides.

RE: Basic Apple TV review and setup
I'm afraid I've seen no tvs that I would call accessible. I just got a relatively cheap one from wal-mart ($150 or so). I believe the minimum resolution you need to get is 720 p. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Cheryl Homiak Sent: Saturday, March 08, 2014 9:19 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Basic Apple TV review and setup I don't know of a podcast but there is a Take Control book about Apple TV and it includes voiceover information.

Re: Basic Apple TV review and setup
Many people are confused, thinking the Apple TV is used for watching TV, like any channel on your cable, but this is not correct. Apple TV has several things on it, Movies, which allows you to rent or buy through iTunes, TV Shows, which allows you to rent or buy through iTunes, Music, which I guess allows you to buy through iTunes, not sure, haven't used the music part yet. Then there are other things such as Net Flix, which requires a subscription, YouTube, Radio, Podcasts, MLBTV, Trailers, iTunes Festival, Vimeo, Flickr, WSJ Live, NHL, NBA, Hulu Plus, which requires a subscription,, Photo Stream and several other features. Some of these others might require subscriptions, but I don't use many of hem myself to know. There is a computer section which allows you to turn on home sharing in iTunes which allows you to access your iTunes library through the Apple TV. And there is settings which is self explanitory. All of what I mention is accessible with VoiceOver. I am very happy with mine and would definitly recommend it to others. -Original Message- From: cnmyh...@gmail.com Sent: Sunday, October 14, 2012 10:40 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Apple tv How accessible is it?
