Spreading the word: Roku added two more devices today to stream Netflix movies, Amazon Video on Demand and MLB.TV and other content to your TV.
The Roku SD player starts at $79. The Roku HD-XR, $129, adds Wi-Fi’s 802.11n technology plus a USB port for future use.
These join Roku’s existing $99 HD player, which came out in May 2008. All have Wi-Fi. You can compare the three products HERE on Roku’s site.
