Troublesome remote

Verified Purchase:No
The remote uses 802.11 and the Roku box is like a wireless access point, but it doesn't let you connect to the internet. Instead, it interferes with my real wireless access point and makes it so I can't have the Roku powered on and use my wifi connected computers in the room at the same time. That's really not a good feature! They should have used BlueTooth like the PS3. I have to keep mine unplugged when I'm not using it and then I have to be prepared to not use my wifi devices while it's turned on.
Pros: Fast Setup, Easy to use, Good Performer
Cons: Remote Use Wifi Frequency
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

happier with the roku 2

I have 2 roku 2s and love them so as soon as I saw the roku 3 I snatched it up. The interface was updated and the hardware specs improved but the box needs rebooted several times per day because the audio synchronization is off. I never had any problems with the roku 2.
Pros: Fast Setup, Attractive Design
Cons: Does Not Improve Audio/Video
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I use the roku almost 24-7. But I really wish the third party apps were better developed. They often crash or work improperly. You should set higher standards for your app developers b
Pros: Easy to install, Easy to use, Lots of Applications
Cons: Lots Of Bugs, Third Party Devs Suck
