If you are a Netflix subscriber, you may have noticed that some titles are available for instant viewing on your PC. Now you can watch these titles on your TV instead of on your PC. Roku sells an appliance that accomplishes this. It is about the size of a paperback, and comes with an IR remote.

The little Roku connects to your home network wirelessly or via Cat5, and connects to your TV via composite video, component video, s-video, or HDMI. It is available for a flat $99 fee, no subscription (other than Netflix) required.
