Thanks to our newly found unlimited broadband Internet, courtesy of Mediacom (whose third party contractors will hopefully find the time in the next month or two to bury the cable that's currently laying in our yard), we decided to sign-up for Netflix once again, knowing that we could stream movies to our laptops and desktops over the Internet. We also knew that our Blu-Ray player had a built-in capbility to play streamed Netflix movies on our TV, but that wouldn't work until we got a really long network cable run from the basement to the living room, or got a wireless adapter.
So it was a nice surprise when we found that Netflix sent us a special disc for our Nintendo Wii, which already has a built-in wireless adapter, that would play streamed movies on our TV. When the disc arrived Friday, we gave it a try and watched a so-so documentary called In Debt We Trust and then an episode of '90s MTV sketch show The State.
It's nice to know that any given night when we feel like watching something from the "Sentimental Romantic Action & Adventure" category, it's just a Wiimote click away!
