Note 1: We've now got a new forum for Apple TV hacks. Check it out here and let's start posting all the info you've discovered in this thread - a central source for information is always a good thing.

 

Note 2: The hacking of the Apple TV has begun in full force. There's a new blog on the subject, plus a ton of comments in this SomethingAwful thread, not to mention several dissections.

 

Here's what we know so far:

 

Hardware:

  • 1.0GHz Intel Pentium M-based "Crofton" CPU, based on SSE2 Dothan model # 7645A966 0159
  • NVIDIA G72M graphics with 64MB DDR2 memory
  • 256MB of 400MHz DDR2

Software:

  • Suspected to be a modified version of OS X 10.4 or 10.5

Firmware:

  • Nothing so far.

Communication:

  • TCP port 3689 is used to communicate with iTunes while using the iTunes Library Sharing feature.
  • UDP port 5353 is used by Apple TV for automatically finding computers with iTunes on your network using Bonjour.
  • TCP port 80 and 443 are used for basic and secure communications with the iTunes Store via the Internet.

Please post new findings in the new Apple TV forum!
