Set this up on a wireless router in about 10 minutes. Easy to install, easy to hookup, and intuitive. I switched routers from G to N, and the re-setup was seamless and easy.
Pros: Compact, High quality picture, Easy to use, Reliability, Easy to set up, Built in Wi-Fi
Cons: Need fast internet service
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great HD picture quality.

I still think that Internet content has a long way to go before we can scratch the very expensive cable company. Even Hulu Plus couldn't offer the content I was interested in. Everything that interested me was marked "web only". Maybe add a web browser to the Roku product? Wouldn't mond the ability to connect to external storage or iTunes either. That would be cool. ;)
Pros: Easy to use, High quality picture, Reliability, Compact, Easy to set up, Great value, Built in Wi-Fi
Cons: Want more video choices

I like that you can easily watch Netflix and Hulu on there. Thats the reason I bought it. Works well. Sometimes I loose the wifi and have to reset my Router and the Roku box, but it is not that often. A great device for the money.
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Reliability, Compact, Easy to set up, High quality picture, Easy to use
Cons: Want more video choices

Roku Box Rules!
on January 16, 2011
Posted by: Chris P.
from Mesa, AZ
I love my Roku Box! I don't know how I got along without one! It is very fast at streaming Netflix and has a great channel selection above and beyond a blu-ray player. It is extremely easy to set up and I love the fact that it has wi-fi built in because I do not want a room full of LAN cables and whatnot running throughout my home. The only negative thing I have to say about it is the limited range of the remote control. You have to aim the remote directly at the box versus in it's general direction. Other than that this box is prefect!
Pros: Great value, Reliability, Compact, Built in Wi-Fi, Video selection, Easy to use, Easy to set up, High quality picture
Cons: Remote needs better range
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best investment I've made in awhile

I got this because I use Netflix and can't afford cable anymore. Set-up took five minutes - it couldn't have been easier. Canceled my cable and am now saving $50 a month. Only one month into having my Roku and I've already recouped the investment with what I'm saving by not having cable. Love it!!
Pros: Video selection, Easy to use, High quality picture, Great value, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up, Compact, Reliability
I would recommend this to a friend!

This device does not work as advertised!

This product does not work wirelessly unless next to the wireless access point. If wireless is a requirment, you must purchase the XD/S for reliable wireless performance. Additionally, the support organization in India is clue free and does not followup with return phone calls when promised.
Pros: Compact
Cons: Inconsistent performance
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
