The MacJury panel takes a look at their first few days with the new Apple TV. From the new Siri Remote to bottom line performance, there is a lot to like about the new device, but a few challenges along the way. Launch and delivery issues, the initial set-up procedure, the new interface, the new App Store and more are all considered by the panel of Bart Busschots, Josh Centers, Jeff Gamet and host Chuck Joiner.
