Ahhh....Roku


I admit it. I love this little gadget. If you haven't heard the "Roku" is the Netflix "Apple TV" thingy. It's $99 and it streams instant content from your Netflix queue right to your tv. I am using it with an S-Video cable and the picture is great. It will also do HD. Maybe the best thing about it is that Amazon is about to get onboard with on-demand content for the Roku. Yes, it will carry a cost. I am willing to go there, if the content is worth it. We'll see. As for the box, once you own it, it's yours and the Netflix stuff works as long as you have a dvd "unlimited" plan. So, if you get one DVD at a time "unlimited" you're there. How simple is that? Simple enough for me.
