life's little hurdles
Been without cable for a while. For me the big thing was getting a Smart TV, wi-fi enabled. Netflix is native, as is MLB.tv, Hulu Plus and Amazon Prime. So I don't need a roku or apple tv, which leaves my setup almost completely wireless/box-less, except for blu-ray.

And the best part is the DLNA compatibility. I have a computer running Twonky and feeding videos and music directly to the TV over wi-fi. It even streams high-def video, AVI's, MKV's, etc.. I've been very impressed with what it can handle. 720p with ease and 1080p usually without issue.

My only hiccup is if I want ESPN3, I have to connect my Mac to the TV via HDMI. I've tried PLEX for that since there's a plug-in but it sure sucks, IMO.
