Can I Use Roku Any where

For a simple setup..Nope. Netflix only streams in USA and now recently in Canada if you have a separate canadian subscription. A more complicated setup is to have VPN between a US site and your home in the Bahamas so that your Netflix will stream to your US site and in turn is redirected overseas.

You can purchase the old version of the Roku that uses red,white,yellow connectors or get the hdmi to av converter version, NOT the av to hdmi converter version.

No!This device only plays movies you have on your computer, You transfer movies, Photos and music to a flash dirve and can watch them on your TV or projector. It is not a set top box like Roku. Check out set top boxes for streaming movies and internet channels. Also some DVD players have access to Netflix, check it out.

It would depend on the hotel has both Wifi and HDTVs with a MHL port. MHL looks like USB ports but are only on some TVs and the Roku Streaming Stick will not work with a standard USB port. Apparently this is needed for the two devices to control each other.

Yes it will. You need to download a software called Plex, it is available for both MAC and Windows. http://plexapp.com/. Once this is installed you can activate the PLEX channel on your Roku box. This will give access to all your iTunes video and audio.

yes, roku doesn't use your computer to function, just the wifi whether from your pc or modem. I use the Roku even with the computer off.

Yes, Amazon is one of the "channels" that you can select on RoKu. You have to have an Amazon account. A "Prime" account will let you play the Prime Content for no additional charge.

You may attach a Roku player to the TV via the HDMI in port, as long as your Roku box has HDMI output. The TV itself is not a "smart" tv. The Roku box is the "smart" part :)

We have two Rokus, could that be Roki? Anyway, we have one at our mountain home and one at out city apartment, we switch them out on our total of 3 TV's, so the answer is, convince! You can move them all over and they work where ever you use them. If you don't want to move them and possibly put in a new wifi code get as many as you can afford, if you don't mind moving them about you could have one or two and be happy. I think Roku is great and have had my first one for over 2 years.

You do not need "Cable TV" to use the Roku. You will need an internet connection to stream movies and tv shows from online services like Netflix and Amazon

Depends on what you are using it for - if you get the cable to tether the projector to your laptop to watch a DVD - no problem. If for Canada and you are using WIFI and have Netflix, you need to download and pay for a montly subscription to Unblock-US.com to give your ROKU an IP address in the US, Canada has different streaming restrictions for services like Netflix.

Yes it is ,,,But the Roku 3 is so small it can sit on the shelf or or any where close to your internet wireless signal and connect the HDMI cable to the TV. Unobtrusive

No you can't I highly suggest a roku box over this one... this one has the few apps listed and hasn't updated in the year or so I have had it

Yes, netflix works on the Roku stick and the Roku. The Roku stick needs to have wifi access to be able to stream.

I went to Roku.com and looked through the channel store. It does have that channel available.
