Thanks for the input.
I went with the Blue Ray wireless built in machine. The Blue Ray is Fantastic! i'll let you know how the Netflix part works out. You do have to be careful though. Wording like internet capable or Netflix capable masks the truth that you need to buy a network adpter or some other gizmos to get it all to work. I looked for the term "WIFI built in" that way if you have a wireless router , you can tune in without buying other stuff that is sometimes costly.
After a lot of looking , what you notice is that a lot of the boxes have the logos for the services that the machine is capable of accessing. Netflix is a very easy logo to recognize and the red in it makes it really prominent on the outside of the box.
As I posted elsewhere , the only thing that remains to be seen is how it will all work with my wireless G router. i may need to update to a wireless N to get the best peformance. The new BlueRay has Wireless N . Wireless G will work but it may take long buffering times or could start stop flicker etc. If that's the case , I need the new router. my router is at least 5 years old now. Its a good one but it is getting old.
