So probably no Netflix unless rooted. Hmm, looks like I'm gonna have to start checking what their video streaming library looks like. I've already got a Prime subscription (they gave me 3 months free when they started the service and I was hooked). I just use Netflix because of Windows Media Center integration. Really wish Amazon would release a streaming video plug-in for WMC. For that matter, I wish they'd release a shopping plug-in for WMC. Would be nice to be able to buy stuff using the remote.

The Kindle tablet is looking mighty attractive. At the very least, their app store has Kobo and Mantano so that should cover my ePub needs.
