Probably because like myself, I was uneducated about XBMC and how to jailbreak ATV's until very recently. I bought an ATV3, mistakenably thinking it will allow me to jailbreak it, because all I'm seeing is that it's a black ATV, and looks identical to ATV2 in every possible way physically, except the model numbers are different.
Took me awhile to realize that ATV3's cannot be jailbroken yet. I bought it right around the time someone tweeted on Twitter that ATV3 jailbreak is being worked on.
I waited a few days but from forums, there was no hint of any timeline estimates, so I figured this could take weeks/months.
Instead of returning it fo refund, I sent out an email at work to see if anyone is willing to trade their ATV2 for my ATV3, and I found someone willing, and I now have an ATV2 which is now running XBMC. Yay :-D
