After endless hacking by a dedicated group at awkwardtv, the AppleTV has yielded to their efforts. A user Turbo posted a method to enable USB support. After the group had tried for literally 6 days straight, patching kernels, adding kext’s, massaging files and other zane the USB works. USB keyboard and mice!

lpp has tested it and Ozy is going to verify the wiki.

Next up?
Honestly, the sky is the limit at this point. Go buy one.
