Faster but a bit buggy

I bought the Roku 3 to replace one of my Roku 2 XS units. I absolutely love the headphone port on the remote and the improved speed. Unfortunately I have seen a bit of stuttering and general bugs when it comes to the interface. I am sure this is something that will be solved with a software update however it can get a bit annoying. I've also found my receiver to be incompatible with the new audio output which leaves me unable to watch certain content from Amazon and Netflix.
Pros: Fast Setup, Attractive Design, Simple Controls
Cons: Conflict With New Audio, Interface Stutters
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love my Roku. I dropped cable and using my Amazon Prime account have saved enough to pay for the Roku itself. My one complaint is that with the model I have once a month or so the screen will freeze and I will have to restart the box.
Pros: Simple Controls, Fast Setup

Better Than AppleTV

We bought a Roku 3 and an AppleTv at the same time to replace DirecTv. Now I wish we had bought two Roku 3s. Both are good products but the Roku out stripes the AppleTv in every category.
Pros: Wifi Remote, Fast Setup, Lots of apps, Simple Controls, Attractive Design, Audio Hook-up On Remote, Improved Audio/Video
Cons: No airplay

great idea with room to improve

I got the Roku to use the Time Warner channel to gain content without a STB. It's a great device - but really needs to add a way to get more video content (e.g. streamed from web browser)
Pros: Fast Setup, Simple Controls, Attractive Design
Cons: No browser
