Bought this in December. Absolutely love it! Easy to use! I like the fact that it's compact and you don't have a bunch of wires or a big box to contend with!
I've been a long time Roku fan. I have two Roku TV's. I had a Roku 1 on my wall-mounted TV and just wanted to eliminate the cord - so the Stick was the solution. It did the trick and I passed along my old Roku to a family member.
I bought the Roku Streaming Stick as an early Christmas gift to myself. I've heard about Roku some time before but thought it as another gimmick. Then my best friend bought the Roku 2 for her household and they are still enjoying the programming! I read more about Roku online from other consumers, and later, read a quick review in CNET Magazine, where they compared Roku to other devices. Also, I had lost a crucial app on my gaming console and found it was available on the Roku. That sealed the deal for me! My only beef are that the instructions are a little cryptic and the device is far more easier to set up. Also, one doesn't need to unplug the Roku each time. On my Philips smart TV, all I do is click on the tv's original remote to 'Net tv' and click back to 'devices list', scroll downward to 'Components' to shut off the Roku. I also got back my list app and many more discoveries thanks to Twitter!
I bought this about a month ago!! Its sooooo nice not having to have anything other than the roku stick connected to the TV to get all my apps and television!
