Wow, what a cool little device for your HT.

I am most impressed with the CRACKLE service on it.. Picture a netflix but FREE... Its pretty boss.

Sound and picture quality is very good.
Also I live in an area where high speed is rather crappy... My MAX is 3.5 DSL and it works flawlessly.

If you are in the market I would recommend it..

Also if anyone has one and would care to share any tips or tricks I'd be appreciative!

The PS3 is still the best Netflix box by far (1080p, 5.1DD streams), but the Roku does fine in a pinch, and it's pretty cheap these days. Setup is super simple.

I loves my Roku. It's nice you can stream video through the USB port too. I watched 127 Hours from a thumbdrive.
