Netflix has finally come to Honeycomb Tablets, sort of. Netflix has actually only released it for 1 tab in the market, but that didn’t stop XDA. XDA forum member quixin make quick work to pull the apk from his Atrix and make it available for everyone after a recent update from to the Netflix App. I’ve successfully installed and watched several shows and parts of movies. I will agree its working near flawlessly on my XOOM. It seems most every tab that it has been installed on works. XOOM, G-Slate, Dell Streak 7, Acer Iconia A500, Galaxy Tab, and this includes non-rooted devices as well. The only complaint is coming from Transformer owners who are unable to get the apk to work. Thanks quixin for pulling that so quickly and once again thank you XDA! –Greg

I’ve been telling my girlfriend that we NEED a Playstation 3 to complete our home entertainment system. I’ve given plenty of reasons, the most obvious, Blu-ray, the next being we can share media (pictures, music, and video) across our home network via UPnP, and finally can you guess, GAMES. Well of course non of these mean to her that this is something we need. Well now I have a new reason to add to the list, Netflix! Netflix and Sony are finally teaming up to bring Netflix to the Playstation 3. I will admit that I had already researched a bit on how to get Netflix streamed through the PS3, which there are alternative ways to do so, but I never really threw that out there. Now, this has to be an excellent reason?! Nevertheless I have completed building my Windows Home Server, so the addition of a Playstation 3 is now imperative to complete our home entertainment system. I want, rather need to have the power of pictures, mp3′s, videos, games, blu-ray, netflix, and internet routed out of my beautiful plasma, I must and will have it! Resistance is futile! -Greg
