Asterisk on Apple TV

I'm not doubting l0rdr0ck was able to get Asterisk to run on Apple TV, I'm just disappointed I can't see the screenshot or learn more on how he did it, so I can try it myself. (Once I get my hands on an Apple TV). I'm still trying to figure out how useful integrating Asterisk onto Apple TV might be and all the possible "synergies". I suppose CallerID popup on the Apple TV is one simple hack. That and you get a nice little turnkey Asterisk box for your house. The Asterisk running on Apple TV hack reminds me of the popular hack that lets you run Asterisk on your home Linksys WRT54 broadband router simply by flashing the firmware (Asterisk on OpenWRT). Hackers and Asterisk fans are using Asterisk in their homes to control security systems, light fixtures, etc. via the X10 protocol. In any event, l0rdr0ck if you read this post, details please on the Asterisk/Apple TV hack. We need details...
Update: I now have a screenshot I can share (Click for large image):

Thanks for sharing the screenshot.
I never doubted the story, since 500+ Diggs would be very rare for a "fake". Too many smart diggers.
I just didn't know why everything became so "sketchy". (missing screenshot, no details)

Yeah, sure, how do I gain access?p.s. the asteriskTV.txt link still doesn't work for me, but the photobucket link now works.
