This thing sucks

It simply doesn't work, and it's too long to fit in most HDMI ports. The content buffers, stops, reloads, loses the connection so often, it's unwatchable. I went back to my first generation Roku and it works a lot better. I love the idea of the stick, but this thing needs to be redesigned.
we have satellite internet, so we have to pay per month for upload and download. When we purchased this, it was our understanding that we could set it to standard def streaming (like netflix allows you to). This way it wouldnt eat up our bandwith. Unfortunately, we have yet to find that feature and we are unable to really use it often because of that. If you have a cable connection or DSL, its an excellent choice. Not so much for satellite internet.
l love roku, please make a universal remote with full keypad and more features! ^.^ also, can you partner up with carton network so we can have more shows such as adventure time!!
I brought this 2 months ago and working fine except the remote consuming more battery power and sometimes it is hanging and which needs to get remove the batteries and put it back. Remote is little heavy.
I bought two of these for my kids' rooms. They use them all the time. They are a little slow when moving around the menus compared to my Roku 3. Still incredible. Can't wait for additional products to come out.
