Abstract: Netflix's first streaming box is finally here and it's pretty damn brilliant of a setup. First of all, the box is 99 bucks, and designed by Roku. It's fanless and quiet; has HDMI and optical outputs; and is about the size of five CD cases stac...
Affordable. Provides uninterrupted standard-definition movie streams. No PC necessary. Easy setup. Automatically syncs your Instant Queue.
Streams at low bit rates on slow networks. Limited selection of films. No HD support—yet.
For those looking to augment an unlimited Netflix subscription, this set-top box from Roku is affordable and easy to use. Heres hoping the movie selection becomes broader....

Abstract: Well, would you look at that? After a mildly uncomfortable wait, the very first Netflix set-top-box has landed (the Xbox 360 with plug-ins notwithstanding). Thanks to Roku, users can finally tap into (a portion of) the Netflix library without having to wa...
video quality from streams. Box automatically upgrades as new software features become available. No cost above normal Netflix subscription.
Another nondescript black box to clutter up your living room. Just not as much content as we wish was available. Box and remote, while functional, just arent very good looking.

Streams Netflix Watch Now titles to your TV; affordable $100 price tag; unlimited viewing with no additional charge beyond standard ($8.95 or higher) monthly Netflix fee; PC-free movie watching; simple setup; includes built-in wired and 802.11g Wi-Fi n...
Though growing, the number of Watch Now titles currently available for streaming is still fairly paltry, especially when it comes to popular recent releases; video quality doesnt come close to DVD or HD; far too many titles dont appear in their origi...
While its still a work in progress--and currently lean on quality content--the Netflix Players simple operation, overall convenience, and cheap price makes it a compelling option for Netflix subscribers looking for instant gratification.

Pequeño, fácil de instalar, no requiere ningún tipo de TV en especial ya que tiene todos los puertos básicos y avanzados; listo para HDTV, el software se mejora automáticamente, acceso inmediato a 10 mil películas, documentales y series de TV, conexión HDMI, conexión inalámbrica a Internet, muy barato y sin costo adicional mensual si tienes una cuenta Netflix, puedes ver las películas que quiras sin pagar por ellas individualmente
Por el momento sólo disponible en los EEUU y sólo puedes ver 10 mil de las 100 mil películas que Netflix ofrece. Todavía no hay películas en HD, pero la caja está lista para aceptar ese formato. No tiene ninguna función avanzada mientras ves películas como en los DVDs actuales
La instalación duró menos de 10 minutos. Al momento de ver películas, se tarda unos 2 minutos para que comience, y de ahí para adelante nunca se cae la imagen ni sonido. Es una experiencia totalmente fluida comparable con cualquier película de cable o D...
