I like but the one thing I don't like is streaming in super LOW-Def. Yeh, yeh, I know it is streaming over the inter-webs but I'm also spoiled by great picture and acute eye

I have a Blu-Ray directly connected (not wireless) to the internet and use Amazon's movie streaming: it SUCKS! Doesn't matter whether you download in HD or lowD. I can usually get all the same movies via Comcast OnDemand and the feed is PERFECT.

Blu-Ray player might just be new enough (or not) to be firmware upgradable to permit Netflix in the future. Uses the Viera Cast service...

We use Netflix streaming through Roku.

I stream netflix a lot I have it on the WII, but what I do 99% of the time is run it on my laptop and use a 20 ft hdmi cable to my tv that is about 15 feet away. A little cumbersome, but it works great. I have a panasonic 58 plasma that has an internet connection but It came out just before a chip revision that would allow netflix. It has amazon and a bunch of other services but not netflix. The hdmi cable allows you to stream HD. (or netflix's version of hd) looks really nice I think.
You can also stream in hd whatever else the networks, hulu, fancast, youtube, have too.
