If you look on ebay, they're selling used apple tv 2nd gen for over a hundred. Is there a reason other than jailbreaking? I thought about upgrading the couple of 2nd gens that i own.

Nope, just the jailbreaking. I rarely use mine for its intended purpose. I use it as a tiny XBMC machine, so I don't have much use for a current model. My projector is only 720p, so I'm not really loosing anything.

XBMCis great if you have a lot of your own content you'd like to stream from your PC or server. It also has tons of video addons that have all the tv and movies.

BTW they're going for over $200 in most cases.

I just sold my apple tv 2 on ebay... got almost 150 for it... I have a 3, which I wanted for the 1080p... the 2 was just sitting in my closet... so while I didn't get 200 for it, it's still more than I paid and glad I could get rid of it rather than it collecting dust...

i'll probably sell the 3 once the 4 comes out... hopefully they figure how to JB the 3 by then... ;)

Does it have to be running a specific version to jailbreak? I was thinking of listing mine but not sure if it still can be jailbroken.

No idea... That'll be the buyer's problem... But mine's been unplugged since I got the 3, so it's a few versions behind...
