Good news in that the PS3 issue is solved with an update that came out yesterday. Check it out, at their site themediamall.com

The Netflix Roku Box is the best. I think this innovation (at the $100 price point) obviates the need for cable TV. My wife and I switched from Blockbuster to NetFlix/Roku and cancelled our cable TV. Roku needs to offer adult videos too! Otherwise the Vudu box is worth the extra money, and may win just like VHS beat Betamax. It would be nice for us to get our adult movies from SugarDVD.com via Roku instead of the postman!

This article needs to be revised. There is an obvious typo when referencing VUDU, the video store in a box. They mean Hulu, the website where you can watch tv and movies legally. VUDU does not work without hardware and never will. You should adjust the article accordingly.

Not only that but it caused my PS3 to “repair database”. This happens sometimes when the PS3 thinks it has corrupted files. Pretty lame software.

Yup, totally doesn't work. I can see all the content but the screen just goes black when you try and play.

Their forum and contact page don't work. So much for an informative beta.

I get the exact same message on my PS3. Sucks. I really want to try it out.

Great idea... too bad it doesn't work and their website doesn't provide any feedback channel.

PS3 says... The folder could not be accessed
