I tried to buy one. But even in Greenhills, I couldn't find.

Do you know somewhere I can buy one in Manila?

If so, thank you!

be on the lookout for the apple tv at the market place... but i guess you are still not entitled to view the marketplace... just hang in there and join the discussions first... and welcome to PhilMUG... ;o)

OMG. Then It must take some time! Thank you for greeting me and good information!

yeah, it's not available here officially. (apple store online doesn't sell it). but rumors are a new version of apple tv is coming out early next year. So if you can hold off from buying, i suggest waiting for the new one.

Thanks Sonza! I checked what you said! According to rumors, the next apple TV will be more fantastic with TV set-top box but will become more expensive... Thank you for your advice!

mmm....that makes you the third or fourth Philmugger looking (desperately it seems) for an Apple TV. As I've posted in another thread, the best recourse is to purchase it from the U.S. via eBay or directly from Apple Inc. via JAC (Johnny Air Cargo). JAC has a service that allows Philippine-based customers to order any item from the U.S. without needing a U.S.-issued credit card. JAC will order the item for you (and delivered to their U.S. offices) using their credit card and you pay JAC at any of their local branches with Philippine Pesos. What can be more convenient than that?

It's cheaper to get them from Amazon than from the Apple Store

What's the name of this service? Can't seem to find it on their website.

the apple tv is not sold through official outlets here because the movie and tv content sold on iTunes is not licensed for distribution in the Philippines. And since the Apple TV is designed to work primarily with itunes content . . .
