My mistake. I recall that they *announced* it would be shipping back in
Nov/Dec. I was even mildly interested until I learned that it is only
802.11b and doesn't even have a wired NIC -- a real deal-breaker
combination for me.

Anyway, I just scanned the Roku forums and found that Roku was
accepting orders as far back as last October, and promising delivery in
November. Oops! A lot of posters over there pretty PO'd about not only
the delay, but also Roku being less than forthcoming about realistic
shipping dates. Roku claims unforeseen manufacturing problems.

I still think the self-contained table unit is a promising concept, but
it's hard to imagine the execution could be any worse than what Roku has
done.

EDIT: Dean, I noticed you chose not to comment on the Rhapsody
connection, nudge nudge.
