Still looking at options for a netflix streaming capable media appliance. Looking for a $100-$150 BluRay DVD player w/ NetFlix support. Then looking at Roku devices seeing the one I'd need would be around $100 (no need for wi-fi seeing I have a Cat5e plug next to my TV)... Now thinking of holding off a few months to get a Nintendo wii which are slatted to have NetFlix support (official support w/o loading any additional unsupported software).
Obviously if I only want NetFlix support I can technically just get a cable for my MacBook Pro and hook it up that way. However, it would be nice to just get a device that my wife and kids could figure out.
Anyone have a Roku and happy with it? Or am I better off just getting a BluRay DVD player or wii (when they finally support NetFlix).
Looking for input.
