I was looking at the new DVD players and noticed most all were Netflix capable for instant movie watching. We have a Netflix account but I never thought about having it go directly to the tv. I was wondering if it is simple to have it connect to wireless and the movies don't buffer every few minutes. Goodness, one was only $99 for this capability along with HD radio, and other online applications.

We have a DvD for Netflix. Best $$ we've spent on the boob tube. Got rid of all the movie channels thru the cable and saved almost $200 a month. Its insane.

My son gave me Roku for Christmas last year and I have loved getting my instant movies from Netflix. Love all of the BBC and other English movies.

Thanks for all the information. I forgot we had a Wii. It's not a new one but it may work.

We use our Wii for Netflix...many of the new TVs have built-in wireless networking, too.
