We own the Roku 2 XS. We bought it this year and it does get Amazon Instant Video and Prime.
well, strange.

HDMI is HDMI (assuming that it's 1.4a, etc).

could be that the samsung is being picky about a 1.1 cable (which you might run into, but really should not be sold anymore). A 1.3 cable is all you need with the Roku (since it isn't doing audio back or ethernet pass-thru). Unless you are needing one of those or doing 3D, a 1.3 cable should work with about anything. And is definitely all the roku/samsung combo needs (as I said, it works fine here; everything is HDMI and has been for years, now).
