I didn't know about the line-out, that's annoying (but possibly they still have time to add that in). One thing I will note is that since this is a GSM phone, it's likely that other GSM carriers can add it to their service. If it sells well, I'm sure you'll see T-Mobile latch on fairly quickly. Sprint, on the other hand, doesn't have a GSM network, so I won't be seeing one of these any time soon. As for the AppleTV -- that's neat, but I've got a modded XBox that does everything the Apple box does (at 720p) plus no annoying DRM.
