My wife bought this little bitty black box, my kid hooked it to the tv (I was gone to the dump), and it plays all kind of stuff. I watched some really cool Kevin Norton videos on youtube. The weird thing is that the picture is really clear and it doesn't skip. You have to have wifi.

It's a lot clearer and smoother than on my pc. It's also on a 32" tv. Lots of stuff on it for free.

I just looked at the site. That's a pretty neat thing to have. It would be really nice to see some of the YouTube things on a larger screen, for sure!

I have seen Roku and there are pretty cool. They do the same thing as the Wii can do on the internet. If you have a PS3, Wii or Xbox360 you don't need a Roku to get on the internet. I got a wireless keyboard and it is really nice to be able to search the internet without getting off the couch.

No. I was just gone to the dump while all this was going down. My wife ordered this thing off of this series of tubes. It's pretty cool. Sixty nine bucks.
