Customer Reviews

Very good product
Got it from Best Buy (sorry Amazon but they offer a $200 movie credit). Picture quality is very good and the box works flawlessly. HD movies are much better that using my OPPO-981 player and upscaling the same movie on SD (Still this oppo player is a decent upscaler).
After I hit play i got the HD movie with no delay. One drawback; no subtitles or close caption for English speaking movies.

Wireless Kit is Not Included in the price
The wireless kit costs an additional $100 on top of the $300 box. I really love the whole idea, but if they can't include the wireless what is the point?

I would definitely wait until they release version 2 of the Vudu Wireless Edition. Don't buy it now unless your internet connection is right by your tv, along with your cable modem, and your router.

It doesn't look very good when you have a pile of boxes with a tangle of wires hanging out underneath your slick looking flat screen tv that is hanging on your living room wall.

fun and cheap
not too much to say other than this is a fun way to get high def (or standard if you roll that way) for way less than a blu ray, not to mention way less cluttered. I would also add that this thing is so much easier to use than any other solution- the controller has 5 buttons and a wheel! my girlfriend and my mom have no problem using this. i'm sure even my grandma would get it!
