I have a Roku 2 that I use daily. Wanted the stick to travel from tv to tv and this was our test. It "teleports" easily but Hulu app sucks. Not sure if it is the app or the stick but the stick on all other apps is just the same. LOVE the transportation of this and I am a dedicated ROKU fan. Just Fix HULU, Please.
I was expecting more channels with the Streaming Stick, but the selection is still very nice. I will say that not having a built in web browser streaming feature that's available on multiple OS's is kind of annoying. Also having a remote for a streaming stick is so very convenient.
Easy hookup and very convenient. But, when you plug the Roku into the TV using the USB connection, there are some problems with the remote. It does not always connect with the stick. You often have to remove the batteries to get it to reconnect to the stick.
I have three roku 2's and, one roku 1, and one roku stick. The roku 1 and 2 seem to be a lot less finicky. The stick does what it is supposed to just usually takes some work. It sometimes looses wifi and it's closer to router then all others. It also lags more then the other after buttons are selected. I did purchase 2 of the sticks 1 was returned because couldn't get it to work at all. My roku 1 and 2 are installed at another house and she might have less interference in her house but if I get any more of them I'm going to do roku 3 or try the Google model.
