I am also interested in learning weather or not we will have access to the Amazon prime app.

I can't say I remember seeing Amazon Video On Demand as one of the apps in the device. Will update when I get home.

This particular model is not internet ready. I'm sure that Samsung has another model that would meet your needs, if amazon prime needs it. They're great TVs.

Same problem here. I have been looking into flashing the firmware on my LG BD-590 blu-ray player with the app for Amazon instant video to Netcast. Have not found anything yet. I think when a manufacturer flashes the software to the firmware chip then that is the end of it. LG just recently added Amazon to Netcast on the new models. So we may have to purchase another devise to get the Amazon Netcast app. What I have been doing to watch Amazon VOD is to use my laptop HDMI out to my HD TV. Just logon to your Amazon Prime account and watch on PC or video out to TV via HDMI if you have that capability.

I am not seeing the ability to stream Amazon instant video. Anyone know how to do this. My old Blu Ray player kept adding channels to installation.

I'm doing a trial of Prime, and I'm afraid if the streaming won't work, there's little point in actually signing up - Netflix will have to do for now. I think Prime has some great content, but I'm not keen on camping in front of my PC to watch the movies - much rather be able to watch over the game console on the actual TV. Too bad - it's a great price, even compared to Netflix, but steep for the limited capabilities.

You cannot. No app has been written to support Amazon instant video. This model is at least 5 years old.

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 do not own this tv but the product spec PDF on Amazon shows it to be DLNA compliant so you should be able to stream from a DLNA source on the network. Can anyone who owns this confirm?Update: I bought this TV and it DOES have DLNA networking capabilities. Worked very well streaming from a 2TB media server.

Samsung and Amazon work fine on other models, but not this one. Tons of chatter on the net with this. I just went several rounds with Amazon, and they claimed that the hardware (ie processor) won't work with their service. Personally, I find it baloney. , Other models of Samsung before and after work just fine. And other software such as Netflix work without issue. Their answer was to buy a Roku. Personally, I'd skip Prime and stay with Netflix. I'd think long and hard about buying Samsung again too. They both really pissed me off. So sorry.

Natively, Amazon Prime Instant Videos require Adobe Flash Player installed on the tablet, which is not available on Android tablets like this Acer. Kindle Fire and iPads are supported. There are several free apps which state that they can stream Amazon Instant Videos; however I have not found one that works. I just unsuccessfully tried the free "Can I Stream It" app. If you are adventuresome the following link will supposedly step you through how to install and run Flash on an Android tablet - http://www.teleread.com/amazon/how-to-stream-amazon-instant-videos-on-a-nexus-7-or-other-android-tablet/. If running Amazon Instant Video on a tablet is important to you, I suggest that you get an Apple iPad instead.

Hello L. Lyons. Unfortunately this Blu-Ray Player (the VBR220) doesn't support Amazon Instant Video. So far as I can tell it only supports Netflix and Vudu.

Prime videos are NOT supported by AOSP at all, so it is not available on any platform that is not a direct partner with Amazon. Another way around it is XBMC with the Amazon add-on but currently on the support libstage builds the add-on is not supported. Give it some time and you can "maybe" have this feature by default on this unit but it will never come from the Playstore.

I signed up for the one month trial of Prime (and VOD) a few days ago without even looking at what devices supported it. I figured there was no way Amazon would not be on the best streaming device available. When I got home and powered up my Boxee Box I was in shock that there was no Amazon App. How is this even possible? With Netflix screwing over millions of customers why hasnt Amazon stepped up to the plate?

I have the same issue when i go to the amazon app or push the amazon button on my remote I get a screen that is grey that says "The amazon instant application is currently unavailable while we are working hard to bring you an updated, feature rich, application. For more details, please visit http://www.amazon.com/videohelp" has anyone actually gotten an amazon app that works on this tv? Or getting the same thing I am? The web page it says to go to is just a link to amazon cust. support.

Yes it seems like it does support Amazon Instant provided you have a Cable Provider service connected to your Receiver.

it has StreamTV support which is basically like a linux computer with apps like Roku on board... Vudu, who is a Netflix competitor supports the apps... they are pretty good and include twitter facebook etc. Vudu is a no subscription, $2 rental service, which for most people makes it more expensive than Netflix, but it's very premium.... it has very wide support of hot cable series like californication True Blood etc (Amazon is almost as good and Netflix is way far behind on this)..... also Vudu doesn't have a 30 day restriction on new releases like Amazon and Netflix, so anything that comes out on DVD Blu ray is available the day of release.... also if it is available on bluray, then Vudu has itin 1080 which blows away Netflix and Amazon who selectively offer HD content... Netflix is cheap, but it's really not that great.... Amazon Prime is sorta free but is really lacking in HD.... Vudu is premium but will end up costing you if you watch a lot.... My bet is Mitsu will make it an open platform at some point and you will be able to get anything

NeoTv has Netflix and hulu already programmed into the box. The only thing it doesn't have is amazon. Actually runs quite well with out stalling. Don't forget an HDTV cable
