... just wait till Apple announces an extension of the App Store for the Apple TV. When people can develop "full" size and complexity apps, that can be viewed on your large screen TVs!
I sure would hate to be Nintendo, or Sony, if Apple comes out with 99 cents, or even Free games that can be downloaded and played using the Apple TV, using the iPod Touch as the multi-function remote control (each game throws up a specific control pad onto the pre-registered iPod Touch, that can be used to control the game - use 2 or more iPod Touches, for multi-player gaming).
Not just for Gaming, the whole concept of PC usage will change. This will be the BEST way for Apple to dumb down the PC and make it into an appliance. Just download the specific app that you want, and use it.
This will be the big game changer for the Apple TV. And you can bet it will happen, just because it simply makes zero sense for Apple not to extend the App Store to the Apple TV.
