Only one complaint: it can't be turned off and things that cannot be turned off do not last as long as things that can be turned off.
Pros: Compact, Easy to set up, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to use, Reliability, Great value
Cons: No onoff switch
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great for streaming movies and TV from a variety of sources with the ultimate flexability you could want without commercial interuption. This is what cable should/could have been . . .
Pros: Great value, Easy to use, Compact
Cons: Want more video choices

Good product/idea

This is a great product, the Netflix capability alone is very useful. Still dabbling in the other available channels (there are tons) and trying to find a good music server for my music on pcs - I found one but I'm sure there are better ones. Also, it has a SDK that I'm am looking at for making your own channel, so maybe I'll create my own music server channel. It has restarted for no apparent reason three times, but this might have been due to my APC battery being so old, I've since plugged it into the wall directly and haven't had that problem yet, jury's still out on this though because I haven't used it much since the change. - without this issue, it's a great piece of entertainment equipment to have.
Pros: Netflix Instant download, Easy to set up, Easy to use, Compact, Great value
Cons: Restarts for no reason
I would recommend this to a friend!

Why didn't I get one of these sooner? Fantastic user interface, solid performance, and FAST. Buffers and streams Netflix videos 2-3x faster than my Samsung Blu-ray player with Netflix. Amazing quality and super small in size, fits anywhere! I have yet to explore the other channels, Netflix and my Roku XD keep me pretty busy!
Pros: Great value, High quality picture, Video selection, Easy to use, Reliability, Easy to set up, Compact

Have two Roku's using wireless DSL complicates it a bit. But not as much as trying to hook it up to an older system, of an analog t.v., and separate dvd and vcr. Throw in a digital converter and aacckk !! Over all I think it's a great product is helping me wean off of cable. Thank you
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, "Wee sleekit beastie", High quality picture, Compact, Great value, Easy to set up
Cons: Want more video choices, Difficult to set up, May need faster DSL now, Need fast internet service, Upgrades slow the process
I would recommend this to a friend!
