    I like an LCD TV can browse online movies. It seems only Sony LCD TV or Blu-ray DVD player can browse any movie online right now. Since both of Sony LCD TV and Blu-ray DVD player may have that feature, should the LCD TV or Blu-ray DVD player have the Fifi capability to watch the online movie? Can you explain it? Thanks.

  2. I wouldn't. You'll pay $500 more to have it built into your TV and it will play fewer formats than a $100 player like the WDTV Live plus a $20 USB WiFi adapter. A Blu-ray player like the LG BD550 (built in WiFi and support for a reasonable range of file formats from what I've heard) might be ok ($93 at Amazon right now).

    In many cases, the Wi-Fi might be unsuitable for playback of High Definition content. Most places say to use a wired connection if you want the High Def content from Netlix or other streaming sites. I'd check what you are capable of receiving before plunking down that extra cash...
