Love it!

Primarly use in this order. Nextflix, Hulu Plus, Revision 3, TWIT and Amazon on Demand. Love this thing. We still have a PC we use to watch The Daily Show and the Colbert Report, Comedy Central get your act in gear and get on Roku!! While we are at it HGTV and Food Network get your butt over there too (i don't have faith in them although since they give almost no free content online). :)
Pros: Easy to use, Reliability, Easy to set up, Great value, High quality picture, Video selection
Cons: Want more video choices
I would recommend this to a friend!

Will probably not buy another. Difficult to set up. Directions unclear. FAQ's on the web didn't deal with my problem. Once set up, however, the box works very well with a "g" network.
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to use, Video selection, High quality picture, Compact
Cons: Difficult to set up
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love this product. Same as everyone, I'd like more content ... though with Hulu Plus and Netflix I really cannot complain. As, for reliability, I've no reason to doubt it will be excellent, but as I've owned the device only a month it seems premature to comment on it.
Pros: High quality picture, Great value, Compact, Easy to use, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up
Cons: Want more video choices

parent's had no clue.

I bought this for my parents for christmas. they had absolutely no idea what the hell this box was. Since my parents did not have a netflix account, let alone an email account, the initial setup took about 45 minutes, 20 of which the roku box was updating to the latest software. after all is said and done, my parents absolutely love the quality of the streaming video via wireless. I am glad there is a streaming only option as my parents my opt for that later on after their gift-subscription expires. they are constantly wow'd by all of the movies available right on their tv and really enjoy the straightforward remote.
Pros: High quality picture, Reliability, Great value, Video selection, Compact, Built in Wi-Fi
Cons: Doesn't make me pizza
I would recommend this to a friend!

Primative menu
on December 27, 2010
Posted by: Mike O

This unit does deliver a quality movie, but your menu is lackluster and striped-down. Needs to be polished to match the box's performance. Klunky! Lastly, as I was looking for an alternative to cable on-demand, I am disappointed as to the lack of newer and more "mainstream" movies. It seems that each time I look for a movie it is not available to stream and I do not have a Blueray or dvd player.
Pros: High quality picture, Easy to use, Compact, Easy to set up
Cons: Too many c quality movies, Your menu is weird
I would recommend this to a friend!
