As title selling my Apple TV 1st generation 40gb in very good condition including Remote & Wifi Dongle.

the wifi card has been removed and replaced with a Broadcom BCM70015(The faster one) Crystal HD Decoder Mini PCI Express Card enabling this 1ghz pentium box to play 1080p.

currently has Openelec Kodi installed and fully working over component or HDMI with sound (if you update the Kodi or nvidia drivers you might break the HDMI audio)

you can connect via ethernet or use the USB slot for a wireless Dongle (Provided and natively supported),

also on the local network the apple tv appears like any other shared device and you can drag and drop to the 40gb hdd over the network.

starting a high bitrate 1080p movie over wifi can take a while to buffer the stream all dependant on the quality of your wifi signal, over ethernet its much quicker and if you plug a portable HDD into the usb slot even better, but once the video is playing its smooth as butter thanks to the broadcom pci express card.

the spec is 1ghz pentium M with 256mb ram and an Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 + 40gb 2.5HDD

Looking for £35 + P&P or near offer (Was £60)

I'm only selling this because Old Trusty has finally started to give up,, Logik 30" analogue LCD TV, perfect for Retro (No silly video tricks or filters) , worked with everything, even my Intellivision and Acetronic.
Had 2 * component , 1 composite, 1 RGB scart , 1 S Video , 1 VGA, 1 RF , nothing was shared all independent inputs :(

I now have a modern TV (Booooo!) so I use my Raspberry PI over HDMI for Kodi so the Apple TV wouldn't get used


Update.
Just to be clear this is not the apple tv from portarinos. The apple tv from portarinos the much slower broadcom BCM70012. No rubber base and failed hdd.
