Excellent upgrade

Verified Purchase:Yes
I updated my kid's laptops from 8 to 16GB and these did the trick. It's usually less expensive to purchase memory upgrades from a retailer like Best Buy than it is to get it from the laptop manufacturer. It's the same stuff (sometimes even better) at a lower price.

Works better than the older HD model IMHO

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased 2 of these to replace older HD models after doing a little research. I'm not sure if it's a software or hardware improvement, but this model seems to have less buffering issues than the HD models. I would recommend to anybody who doesn't have Roku built in to their TV.

TiVo Roamio OTA (Over-the-Air) DVR: HD antenna users can increase their entertainment options with this OTA DVR. It's a DVR and streaming media player in 1 device. Record and control TV shows, look ahead with a 2-week program guide, and enjoy access to streaming services like Netflix, Hulu Plus and YouTube.
Connection Clarification
To make sure I am understanding correctly -
I can connect to HD antennae and also connect wirelessly for streaming of Netflix etc.

Yes. If you have your HD antenna connected to one input and the Roku connected to another, you are good to go. Just switch inputs (with your TV remote) to watch one or the other.

internet connection
we have dsl. is this strong enough for the romio ota programmer? and does the wifi have to be on constantly or just a few times a week?
dsl would be good enough. I use a wireless internet provider that averages 1 to 3 Mbps and it works fine.
The Roku connects via wifi so to watch it, wifi has to be on. No connection means no watching the Roku.
The Roku connects via wifi so to watch it, wifi has to be on. No connection means no watching the Roku.

do i also have to use my computer to watch netflix on my tv?
Nope. Your computer has nothing to do with the Roku and you don't have to use it in order to watch Netflix on the Roku.

If I already have a "smart TV", does having Roku give me anything new?
I have a smart TV with youtube, hulu, netflix, etc., accessible through the TV. Will Roku add anything that I don't already have? I got one for Christmas and don't know if I should keep it or take it back and exchange for something I do need.
If you have a smart TV, you don't need the Roku...I'm pretty sure it doesn't have anything on it that your TV doesn't already have or can get.

do i need a roku for each tv in my home - and will the wifi work with my computer?
You need a Roku for each TV. For the wifi question check out the Roku website. I have seen my Roku units in my bluetooth connection list on my tablet, but haven't tried connecting that way or with a computer....

Do you have the option of watching any of the streaming programming at a later time?
For example, if you were to go to "sleep" during the program, can you access the program later, or pick up say mid-program, or do you have to rewatch entire program, if that is even an option?
You can access the program whenever you want to and watch it as many times as you want to. You sometimes have the option to pick up where you left off, or start the program from the beginning. You can also fast forward or rewind to whatever place you want to in a program, if for some reason you aren't given an option to continue where you left off.

roku used with directv
can roku be used with a tv that is hooked to dirctv?
Yes it can be used along with any other provider, as long as you have an extra HDMI port on your tv to connect the Roku. You would just switch from whatever port the DTV was on to the port the Roku is connected to.
