    You Can Pre-order the Samsung Galaxy S III Now, but It’ll Cost You

    It’s “friggin’ huge,” as my colleague Jared Newman recently quipped, and Samsung’s Galaxy S III is also going to be friggin’ expensive if you’re in the U.S. and want firsties. While the phone’s stateside launch date is still “early June,” Amazon has started taking pre-orders for the international version.

    I love my Apple TV! Just bought a second one refurbished, too.

    I find it’s able to stream media wirelessly over my network much, much better than my 360 or PS3, both of which stutter endlessly over WiFi.

    I share my entire library using iTunes, and it’s perfect. Browsing media works great (unlike the clunky PS3/360 interface) and I never have a problem playing media, since I format everything for Apple TV from the get-go.

    Yes, it’s a little sleazy how Apple integrates the store into every menu, but who cares? I share 2 TB of my own video (I ripped every television show on DVD I own, and lots of movies) to two different Apple TVs and it works great.
