Apple TV 3 is Jailbreak Ready!

...Well, not so fast. The headline is not true yet, but might be very soon. Members of the unofficial Apple TV fanclub has been waiting with bated breath for the life changing official Jailbreak for the 3rd Generation Apple TV. So much is obvious just by looking at the secondary market's price of the Apple TV 2 - it has skyrocketed on Craigslist, Amazon, and Ebay with prices in the $200's.

You might be saying to yourself: "Holy Shit. Wasn't the ATV2 $99 retail?" If you are, you're right. Apparently the demand for a jailbreakable Apple TV is such that people are paying double retail value for a used Apple TV. The capabilities between ATV2 and ATV3 are so minor that people are still gobbling up ATV2's; really, the only significant difference is 1080p on the 3rd generation.
