Kudo for Roku

Does Roku mean less blogging? Less running? More time spent motionless, with remote in hand? It sure could, if I let it happen. Roku’s Netflix player is fan-tab-u-lous! It’s limited only by the content that Netflix makes available. (But note: I have 20 Mbps FiOS, so 2-5 Mbps for Netflix Watch Instantly isn’t a big deal, and WiFi reception is excellent, according to the Roku.) I see that none of the various videos on CNet, YouTube, etc., demonstrating the Roku are from a direct video capture. I’ll try to make one.
