Mr. S is a HUGE movie fan. I think that if I canceled our cable and our Netflix subscriptions that he'd have NO IDEA what to do. I mean, how much golf can a person play (um, that's a rhetorical question, if you're a golfer I KNOW what you're thinking)? So, it would make sense that this Fathers Day I'd have to find something that he'd absolutely LOVE!!
I was pretty excited that Roku was sending me one of their Netflix players to try out. I'd JUST started hearing a little bit about them and I was curious as to how they work. If you HAVEN"T heard about Roku - it's a little box (about 1/4 of the size of your cable box) that streams high quality movies from Netflix and Amazon Video On Demand from the Internet to your television set.

Once the Roku unit was plugged into the TV, it walked me through a the set-up RIGHT ON MY TV screen. OK, I have an admission to make. I did call tech support to find out how to get the screen up - duh - I basically forgot to turn the television on. The pleasant voice on the other end of the phone asked me if I had remote control for my television and told me to click on "input" until I got to where I had connected the Roku.

Here's the BEST PART! Not only do I not have to WAIT until the movies come by mail - but this little player costs under $100.
So with -
- Over 50,000 movies & TV shows to watch instantly
- EASY connection to your television
- The option to Pause, Rewind or Replay (just like a DVD)
- Wireless or Wired Connection
You can find the Roku Digital Video Player
