Apple TV - Not Until Mid-March

I wouldn’t put this delay on the scale of a Microsoft OS, but Apple has told customers who had already ordered the unit that it won’t meet it’s February target, but would instead be shipping to them around mid March. Coming from most other manufacturers this would be barely even make news, but with Apple consistently meeting dates, and occasionally beating them, it is worth noting.

The unit is selling for $299 and anticipation is high - mostly because of Apple’s unique approach to customer satisfaction. What they usually bring to the table is usability. Ease of use and the human interface is something other companies either cannot do, or just don’t care to put the time into. If it takes them a couple more weeks to put out a polished product, I see no harm.
