We just picked this up and so far I'm really impressed with it. If it wasn't for the fact I'd hate missing current seasons of my favorite shows, I'd get rid of DirecTv altogether.

Anybody else use one of these devices? Any helpful hints?

I have three. One upstairs, one down and one that travels with me.

Other than Amazon and Netflix, I also use Wunderground, Newscaster, Foxnews, Cnet, TED and Pub a dub - plus a couple spiritual channels. I did my free Epix month.

I already added and then deleted the speed racer channel and some others too. Crackle is marginal, for example.

I scaled back to basic cable because I watch this and Amazon more than regular TV. The Amazon prime membership would be a fantastic deal if only Amazon/Roku had a decent instant Queue like Netflix.

So the Roku does Prime streaming? That's the one thing I don't have on my TiVo.

Absolutely. As we speak I am watching Studio 60 episode 8 on the Roku on Amazon Prime.

I'm trying to find a pretty specific product to add onto the new computer I had my folks buy a few months ago, but repeated Google searches and prayers to lesser-known deities have so far proven unsuccessful, so I'd just thought I'd reach out here and see...
