Once again without any description or explanation, Apple has released version 2.0.2 of the Apple TV software, a minor update to the version 2.0 release from February, 2008. Following version 2.0.1’s release last month, users discovered a collection of small tweaks to the device including a new Genres sub-menu for stored movies, podcast-to-iTunes synchronization, and interface improvements, as well as a bug that impacted some users’ ability to connect to 5GHz wireless networks. It is unclear at this point what version 2.0.2 has added, and whether it has corrected or introduced any bugs. The new software is available as a free download from the device’s General settings menu under Update Software.

I cannot report any noticed feature changes. But, I am very happy to see my wireless (n) at 5GHz not dropping connection anymore… Whew!

Wish continuous playback on movie (play one after another) is part of this latest upgrade. Anyone know if it’s possible?
