But I recently ditched those for these:

They are awesome. plugnplay. The battery is like a cell phone battery and you can charge the remote via USB. The keyboard is backlit. And my wife has no "i don't know how to work this" issues because it is just a keyboard and touchpad.

List seems a little slow today so thought I would throw this out there.

Currently I'm using Samsung Blue-Ray players as my streaming media devices. Love them, but they are lacking a few media services that I would like:

Amazon VOD
Crackle

I am able to do Amazon VOD with the Yahoo! App as a widget on my newer Samsung LED. But there is still no Crackle app. So I was looking at alternatives that would give me everything I want in one device. Here is the wish list:

NetFlix
Amazon Prime
VuDu
Crackle
HuLu+
Blue-Ray player
DLNA
Wi-Fi built in

As you can see my primary interest is in the streaming media services (NetFllix, VuDu, etc....). From everything that I've seen the Sony BDP-S580 will do all of this. Anyone else have a recommendation for a single device? I know I can add a device to my setup such as a Roku box that will give me the content I'm lacking, but I'd like to have a single device and not add an additional piece of hardware to my current setup.

Thanks
