In my opinion, the Roku box is the best non-gaming streaming device in the market today thanks to the lineup of content available. And in case Santa didn't bring you one for the holidays, I'm giving away another NETGEAR Roku NTV250 player to one lucky reader of my blog. To enter the drawing, all you have to do is leave one comment on this post and make sure you submit the comment with a valid email address. The drawing is open to anyone with a mailing address in the U.S. and I will select one winner at random on January 31st.
Thanks to NETGEAR for the giveaways and congrats to Ron Ramkirpaul and Gina Sepowski who won the previous giveaways.
I'm ready to get this installed! Thanks so much for your insight.

Thank you so much for your review! As a techie-illiterate, I need to find a way to reduce my living expenses since I'm a retiree with limited income (I am NOT making this up! I want to ditch my cable TV since I find most of the programs boring, and enjoy movies much more! It was recommended to me that I look at Roku...and of course, having no idea what it was, I started researching it, talking to "techies", all of whom had a different opinion. Finally, I found your "side by side" comparison...for which I am extremely grateful! Thank you for your review and your ability to provide reviews in language I can understand!Decisions will now be easier, and I decide to pursue anything else electronic, it's your blog I'll use!

Roku is definitely the winner as of now. Only these devices should include direct internet surfing capabilities.

I really enjoyed your review and I also agree that Roku is the winner, at least for my personal use. I hope I can win one.

No real knowledge of this type of device. Friend recommended WD TV to use for digital movies, but still trying to check it all out. Thanks for the info. I'd love one.
