Wireless Mirroring Arrives in OS 10.8, Thanks to Apple TV

A new feature coming to the next version of OS X (Mountain Lion) is the ability to mirror the content of your Mac to any Apple TV connected display. AirPlay Mirroring sends a video stream with audio to your HDTV.

A Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and suddenly my Mac can be in two places at once. But wouldn’t be even cooler if I told you that you could download TouchPad, turning your iPad/iPhone/iPod into both a wireless keyboard and mouse.

With Wireless Mirroring just one of many new and notable features of 10.8, they are definitely making progress but I feel like Apple is stepping away from the power user to the more casual user.

Apple TV gets major refresh, Finally does Netflix streaming

At $99, it is hard to be upset with the new Apple TV. Especially with the fact that you can stream HD Netflix, YouTube, and iTunes TV shows and movie rentals right from the Apple TV. You can also stream content from any iOS device (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad) right to the Apple TV.

The HD streaming is made possible by built in 802.11n WiFi and a HDMI port. It’s all powered by Apple’s revolutionary A4 chip. The step away from purchasing and storage to a pure rental system is something I’m not overly thrilled about, 
however the fact that I can wirelessly stream my data from my Desktop to my Apple TV kinda makes up for it.

A huge price drop and increased streaming compatibility finally make the Apple TV a viable option for those looking to cut the ties with their monthly TV bill.
