Isn't the Apple TV supposed to have Netflix on it? Yes, but this proves you can stream from your iOS device, so what is to prevent you from streaming Hulu Plus or any other service you have an app for to your TV? That is the real benefit. They have also added a feature allowing you to <a href="http://www.tipb.com/2010/09/16/ios-42-features-set-individual-text-message-tone/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed:+TheIphoneBlog+(TiPb:+iPhone,+iPad,+iPod)" target="_blank">set individual text message sounds</a> for users.
