The New Apple TV

Looks like the 2nd gen Apple TV. However, you can now play 1080p movies on the Apple TV.

iCloud is now working with the Apple TV as well. With iCloud, you can buy movies and TV shows on Apple TV and watch them on your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Mac, or PC. And vice versa. iCloud also stores your photos and pushes them wirelessly to all your devices4 — including your HDTV via Apple TV. It’s the easiest way to get instant access to your content, no matter which device you’re using.
