What would help me that don't live in sweden is the ability to connect directly to a VPN from the apple TV iOS it self. I'm doing it with my iPhone so wouldn't it be possible for the Apple TV to do so too?.. with a little help from your overcharged brains! :)

This is an excellent piece of software of professional quality..It does at least what it says on the tin, maybe even more! Customer support is also a strong point, since a few quirks and bugs are squashed over continuous software updates that are rolled out on a steady basis...
...overall couldn't be happier!
If only there was a way to install small apps on AppleTV on top of this polished Apple-like interface, this would have been a 5-star rating..
Hi, I opened a case w/ firecore as well, but I am not getting the response either. I am not sure why, but is it because we did not buy it directly from their website? When I login, it's showing no download, not even the 1.1.1. All the tabs are blank, only thing they allowed me is to change my password, my old posts are gone as well. Quite strange.
Wenn ich ein Programm kaufe und mehrere Stunden damit verbringe es erfolglos zu installieren habe ich keine Lust mehr auch noch eine unterstützungs Karte aufzumachen. Ich habe den Fehler ja mit error9100 beschrieben
MacUpdate ist weder eine deutschsprachige Website, noch ist es ein auch nur annähernd adäquates Vehikel um technischen Support von einer von MacUpdate unabhängigen (ebenfalls nicht deutschsprachigen) Firma zu verlangen.
Wenn man zu Besuch auf einer fremdsprachigen Website ist sollte man wenigstens soviel Anstand haben und in der Sprache kommunizieren, die das jeweilige Zielpublikum auch versteht.
Und dennoch wundert sich so mancher deutsche Michel wieso die halbe Welt "die Deutschen" als verbohrt und/oder arrogant betrachtet.
One of the really good aspects of this app is that the jailbreaking and installation instructions are well written with plenty of screenshots. If you have some apprehension about the process check out the guide. The app itself is is exactly as described so there are no surprises. All in all a good experience.
Doesn't mention, but I assume this offer is for one year of updates for aTV flash?
FireCore has mentioned in several places that the full pricing on their website now, $29 for one year, et all is just a pre-release price. So before I get locked into this product, can I assume that in December 2012 I'll be paying a lot higher price to renew ?
What happens if Apple TV 3 is released in say march 2012. Will my license transfer? Everyone expects the only difference to be the A5 processor. Which might end up being a challenge to jailbreak anyways.
Updates for one year are included. $19.95 was the pre-order price, but since the release of 1.0 in November the price has been set to the normal level of $29.95. The software will continue to work if your license has expired - you may just not have access to some of the newer features.
When (or if) an ATV3 is released nobody knows, but when the ATV2 came out we allowed all ATV1 users to upgrade free of charge. It's likely we'll be doing something similar if the same scenario arises in the future.
Before buying TV Flash (black) I would like to ask the developer if with the Couch Surfer Pro I would be able to open such a link
