Wishlist Syncing?

Hi all,

I purchased an AppleTV yesterday and noticed that the 'Wishlist' feature doesn't / isn't syncing with my wishlist on the iTunes app. This seems like a no-brainer to me and I would think my TVs and movies on the wishlist would show up on AppleTV. Am I missing something or are they two separate lists?

If they are separate, any rumors / news on if this issue will be resolved with an upcoming update?

From Apple:

Wish Lists on Apple TV sync only with other Apple TVs. They don't sync with Wish Lists on iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or PC.

Thanks for the response! That...doesn't make any sense but I appreciate the answer.

Why would it not sync with the wishlist on my iPhone / Mac, etc.? If I want to watch one movie via iTunes, I probably want to watch it on my new AppleTV at some point. Oh well.

Wish lists can vary from device to device. What I want for my iPhone may be different from what I want on the TV.
