Apple's new Apple TV making its way to Retail Stores today

The new, more powerful and Siri and touch-enabled Apple TV is now available in a number of Apple Retail Stores in Canada. The much anticipated set-top box may not offer Canadian users as wide a range of content as its US counterpart but still brings the promise of smoother and more intelligent search, apps and games.

The Apple TV has evolved with Apple's focus from iTunes content in the first generations to apps and services which includes Apple Music and iCloud. Using Siri to find shows and even get contextual information, rewind, go forward or look for works by specific actor or director are just some of the cool features the new Apple TV can deliver. We'll be testing one in the next couple of days and should document our impressions right here.
