Apple TV: Mobile Innovation Award Winner 2007

Being able to move music, photos, and videos from your PC to the living room is far from new, but Apple TV (starting at $299) not only redefines the concept but also makes every other digital media adapter seem like an engineering faux pas. An easy setup process, fewer cables to connect (the HDMI port supports video and sound), smooth streaming over 802.11n, and integration with iTunes make the product elegant and powerful. Media transmits without the typical stuttering and file-translation issues. Our favorite features: having the most popular YouTube videos at your fingertips, and the dramatic, high-def photo slideshows.
