I just found out on Facebook that soon you will be able to stream Netflix instant content to the Wii. From the press release on the Netflix site:
This makes me happy on so many levels. Marcus got me a PS3 to be able to do this, but it's hard to do when he is playing Tiger Woods Wii golf (it's better to play that on the big TV). Since we have a 2nd Wii, I can just stream on that one. I know you can watch on your computer (and I used to), but it's just not practical if you're also surfing on it.
I've already ordered my disk. It will ship just as soon as it is available. Very cool!
