does the roku have a browser

No, the Roku does not. It's not meant to be a web browser. From one of their engineers: We have numerous interface improvements in the works, but we have no interest, in the short term or long term, to add web browsing to the product. http://forums.roku.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=25340&start=30

Amazon, Hulu and Netflix actually with a web browser. The apps work great, the browser so so.

Yes, however, it's limited. If you're looking to play locally stored videos and you have a newer PC, you'll want to look into Media Browser 3 or Plex (if you have a Mac, Plex is still an option). They will catalogue your media so you can scroll through it easily on the Roku and will re-encode the media to a Roku friendly format on-the-fly.

I would say yes, but I do not own a ROKU and have not had the chance to try it.

There is a Redbox app available on the Roku 3. I've not used it, but I have seen that the app is available.

Dori Kelner,It does not have an offline browser, and it only supports jpeg through the USB port. You may be able to run a slideshow using JPEG files arranged in order, but not an HTML slideshow. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

For instance if you want to watch programming on HBO2GO, you would need to have HBO currently. You can watch YouTube, Pandora and iHeart Radio, you would just need your sign in information, but for Crackle and other free station it would not be necessary. If you subscribe to DailyBurn, it will prompt you to link to your Roku device. Many station you can rent content like Movies, concerts, etc. Hope this helps.

It has both. Apps for Netflix and a web browser. It is only a single core processor so its a little slow loading stuff up, and unless you have the $100 keyboard its kinda a nightmare to type stuff in. Hope that helps.

Yes, it adds Roku to your TV allowing over a thousand apps such as Netflix, Vudu, Hulu, Amazon Instant Video, Pandora and many many others.

No, audio streaming only. Formats and providers are changing so fast that you'd be best off getting a roku/amazon/google streaming stick or device anyway.

No web browser - software is very bad - do not buy this TV - Major problem with 3D, Visio replaced logic board, even worst - get the Sony 70"

Chrome requires a tablet or phone to operate. Roku Streaming stick requires an MHL enabled television, preferably one branded "Roku Ready". They are selling Roku Ready TVs now for as little as $200 (less on sale), but until previously they were harder to find and more expensive. Roku streaming stick is operated by TV remote. Even if you already own a tablet or phone, just keep in mind if you have guests they can't use the TV if you opt for Chromecast.

Yes, it has 2 hdmi Ports that would work with a roku. I use a chrome cast on mine for Netflix and the quality has been great!

roku can stream files that are stored on your computer using plex channel. Plex requires atleast 1GB RAM memory. Here are minimum system requirements: http://wiki.plexapp.com/index.php/Minimum_Requirements

As far as I know, the Roku SD cannot just surf the internet (at least mine can't). It can only stream channels from the Roku channel store.
