Digital camera reviews of Roku HD Player PLUS Premium Cable PackDigital camera Review: Amazing little device Summary: 5 Stars
I had been using PlayOn server with my DirecTV DVR trying to connect to NetFlix. Very clumsy and choppy performance. So I really wasn't very optimistic about Roku. Wow! Was I in for a pleasant surprise. Hook up was easy, even used my AV receiver and the optical sound cable to receive 5.1 surround. Hooked up the HDMI directly to my Samsung 61" HDTV. Within ten minutes, I was viewing my NetFlix movie queue and watching movies at 16X9 and 720 resolution. Sound was awesome. It is still amazing to me that I can get this kind of performance over my DSL phone line connection and WiFi. Who needs HBO and Showtime with this kind of online performance?
