Roku




Roku what is it? When I first heard the name I thought it might have been something that Godzilla battled on Monster Island. No this little device is a Netflix Streaming set-top box that has all of your Netflix instant que pushed to it. The setup is a breeze and with wireless it can support streaming of a 720p signal of anything that you add to your que. They have also included channels from Revision3,TWIT.tv,Amazon Video on Demand and MLB Live. This is the best TV watching experince that I have had in a long time. No commercials and Full Seasons of TV shows are available.

I bought a Roku and have since canceled cable. LOVE it. Well worth the money. I leave it on all the time so I don't need to keep my PS3 sucking electricity. Plus, you can get Pandora and other internet content.
I have a couple of complaints -
1) No HULU. That's an obvious problem!
2) No extensibility - like Playon scripting that allow independent developers to make other content available.
