It's cheap, easy, and fun. I got it to play Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Vimeo, and everything else it does is a pleasant add-on, especially motion-controlled Angry Birds. If you're in the market for a Roku 2, I think you might as well get this high-end model (there are stripped-down versions for less money) since it has a few more capabilities, including a game controller, an ethernet jack, and a USB port for playing external files. The software interface is not slick but everything fast and responsive. UPDATE: I added a star because this unit has proven itself much more stable than it was at launch, due to frequent software updates. Also, the machine now has the HBO Go app, which allows you to stream from HBO on demand from a huge catalog of movies and TV shows. How is the Roku 2 different from the Apple TV (which it resembles, and I also considered)? It's physically similar...

As you know there is 3 versions, I absolutely recommend you spend the money on the XS (99.95) model, the main reason is because it's the only model with a USB port. Which in short term will allow you connect USB HD and play any movies you may of ripped from your DVD's. I have a 4TB array connected with most of my DVD collection, which is close to 1000 movies. Roku has three type of channels: Public Apps Private The public channels are the once visible in what is called "Channel Store". Currently there about 300, but channels are added weekly. Looking at fan blogs, there has yet to be a weeks in about 4 months, that at least several channels weren't added. Now channels can fall into three categories, Pay, Free, and Subscription. Pay means you pay onetime fee and you get...

So first the good stuff. * The Box is tiny and the setup is a breeze. I was up and streaming in under 5 mins. * Netflix, Huluplus, Amazon and Pandora worked fine * Streaming in 1080p worked fine without buffering (I use Xfinity) and the quality is superb * The Ethernet option (available only in XS) is very helpful and the Quality of streaming is far better than wireless and the not so good stuff: * The Box does not have adequate memory and needs an external micro-SD card for more capacity * The device re-booted a few times for me when switching between channels. I was initially very upset with this as the reboot process takes about 3-4 mins. I called support and they asked me to uninstall Angry Birds as it takes up huge amount of space. Did that and then on no re-boots. This sucks as Roku 2 advertises Angry Birds big... Read more |
