not true. I have a dell mini 10 inch netbook 1 gb memory and it buffers and the quality is awful. it stops and starts, not a smooth picture so you should be careful about answering this question with such conviction. it depends on what netbook and how much power it has

No it can't stream Netflix by itself, however you can use a roku, apple tv, etc to do that.

David, I wasn't clear. I am already a Netflix member. I am able to see a Netflix movie on my tv screen, but I must first browse and order it from the Netflix website on a computer. Then I can see what movies are in my instant queue on the tv screen. I then click it and the movie is played on the tv.Contrast this with the VOD Amazon service: I can browse and order from the tv screen, which is alot more convenient than using a computer. I also hear that the Roku interface allows one to browse and order Netflix movies from the TV screen.So I was wondering if anyone knew if this inconvenience will some day be remedied by Panasonic via enhanced software?

No, it won't run Netflix, I've tried several times to use the regular app and the modded app that doesn't require identifying your device, I just can't get it to run, un-modded app says bad batch files and the modded version just crashes. As for running movies yes it will if you have a non-drm movie available, such as a ripped from dvd or "home" movie.

Can I rent movies from itunes and watch them while in the car or on a trip? Not a netflix member but would like a computer that I can use to rent movies online for. Also, I can't find the definitive answer - can this be upgraded to 2gb? Thanks.

It's a TV. If you have some other device that can play Netflix and connect it to the TV, then yes you'll see Neflix. But without anything to stream netflix, you're SOL. No wifi, no ethernet port, etc.

Yes but you must download and install the netflix app and you must also have sufficient space and system resources.

E. Beesley, I managed to register on the website rather than using the software as I have the same issue. Using a netbook the full screen will not display, meaning you cannot see the 'agree or proceed' or whatever it may be! There are still things I've not managed to see and we therefore cannot access. I'm extremely disappointed. Working scrollbars are surely not too much to expect?

I dont know, I just browse the player menus and I didn't find any option for netflix, write to tech support asking about it, they answer verry fast.

Amazon instant videos? I'm 62 and still trying to figure out how to stream Netflix. (I have, by the way!) Better check with someone else. Good luck!

I am not really sure if it will let you stream Netflix.. But I am thinking it should.

Yes you can watch movies on netflix. I havent tried it but you should be able to skype as all android apps work well. Just remember the screen is very small.

The Netflix app is available (free). I just streamed two movies over the weekend without any issues or buffering. The screen on this tablet is amazing.

You can play any dvd on it including the netflix ones. But no it does not stream digital content from netflix. You need roku for that.

Install PlayOn from Media Mall technologies in your computer, Add the movie you want to watch in Netflix to the Queue, anf use any DLNA certified devices to watch it. I believe LN46A750 is one of them.
