Native Skype coming to Apple TV?
By ASAD | January 31, 2008
The Apple TV isn’t just getting Cupertino’s updates, apparently. According to aficionados of the little silver box, a Canadian teen who has hacked his way through a wireless keyboard workaround and a GPS plugin used for an in-car Apple TV setup, is developing a native Skype client for device. Brandon Holland, the hacker in question, says that the plugin will take advantage of the Skype API, and will allow a user to make calls and send text messages using a standard USB headset or USB phone. Text will be entered via the remote, or so he says. Right now there’s no date for the release, but we suspect you’ll be hearing about it before long… so stay tuned.
