I use the Roku XDS and like it quite a bit. Retail is $100 and one of my favorite video toys. Even non-HD programming looks pretty good. I have 3 meg DSL and the streaming is virtually flawless.

Thanks for the input. Roku is listed as a device that will for for Netflix in the USA, but not in Canada. I just noticed that Apple TVis listed on Netflix.CA. Maybe I'll give that a try.

  You must have had a bad installation which did happen. 3 meg is the fastest I can get at my home. 6 meg would be better for streaming and cable and FIOS are best. I don't like cable and don't live in a FIOS area so DSL is my only option.

    Speed of DSL depends on the distance from the hub, among other things. I ditched my cable, and FIOS is only available in half of my town.
