Even the side of the box in which it was packaged had images of iTunes Visualizer-like graphics (supposedly in HD)... it looked more like an old video-game, "Qix" I think it was called.<br><br>When asking about this online, the posts were removed.

They need to get more studio participation, and I'd like to see them make good on the promise that the functionality is going to be licensed to other companies.  It would be nice to have a pre-buffer so that I don't get the stutters if my net connection hiccups.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JeffDM]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 5th 2008 10:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is Roku's Netflix Player living up to your standards?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/07/05/is-rokus-netflix-player-living-up-to-your-standards/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/07/05/is-rokus-netflix-player-living-up-to-your-standards/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ok, here is a question for you guys...

I have it hooked up to my 50in plasma through hdmi. I used to connect my macbook with boot camp windows xp to my plasma through vga and it does not compare. The picture surprised me and this is coming from someone who watches everything in hd on my ps3 or directv. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[velez718]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2008 7:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is Roku's Netflix Player living up to your standards?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/07/05/is-rokus-netflix-player-living-up-to-your-standards/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/07/05/is-rokus-netflix-player-living-up-to-your-standards/</guid><description><![CDATA[I love mine.  Probably the best $99 I've spent this year.  TV shows are great (Rewatching 30 Rock Season 1) - it's just so easy to use.  I've got a line of movies ready to go and it's just push a button and watch the movie.  I had hoped for a little more customization (e.g. always use high quality and buffer more), but I'm quite happy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blake]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 11th 2008 6:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is Roku's Netflix Player living up to your standards?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/07/05/is-rokus-netflix-player-living-up-to-your-standards/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/07/05/is-rokus-netflix-player-living-up-to-your-standards/</guid><description><![CDATA[I really enjoy it, although I'm anxiously waiting for more TV content.  I doubt I will ever get my wife interested in all thirty seasons of Simon & Simon or the Incredible Hulk.  The service really comes in handy in between Netflix deliveries; we watch exclusively DVDs  We canceled Netflix in favor of Blockbuster for the in-store exchanges, but now we're back with Netflix because of the instant access to streaming video. I'm hoping the ROKU player gets access to HULU, that would be perfect for us!  Netflix offers a few children's shows for streaming, which is really useful for entertaining the kiddos.  Agreed, best $99 I've spent in a long time.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jordan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 8th 2008 2:04AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
