My AppleTv's (3 of them) push music to various parts of my house. I have itunes on a schedule to play different kinds of music in the morning when I wake up and in the afternoon when I come home from work. So I use mine for music playback every day.
I also put all of my favorite movies and tv shows into itunes and use the Appletv's to play them. I very rarely use my Dish receiver anymore.
All of my vacation pictures are in iPhoto and the appletv screen saver displays them. This has been a big hit at family get togethers as the grandparents get to see all the recent pictures of the kids and our adventures.
As Chris said there is no ichat for the appletv. I wish they had used the iphone OS as that would have allowed the purchase of apps for the appletv.
