[CNET Members:] Roku 2 XD + 2 Months FREE Hulu plus + HDMI cord + free shipping- $70

Quote from Wetdream : not THAT good of a deal to be honest.. BUT a deal is a deal.. The xd sells on amazon for $78. So your saving $8 and getting a free hdmi cable... Also, on a side note - i actually had this unit (a gift) and decidedto trade up so i returned to best buy and spent $20 more for the XS. differences? XS has a ethernet PORT and its WIRELESS.. as well as the remote can act like a wii remote for my son for games. why should u care? a wired port will always yield more efficient streaming than wireless. no interference to deal with..... just my 2 cents

definitely agree. with all the recent explosion of netflix and hulu plus signups, it isn't that slick (since a huge lot of SDers have free hulu plus / netflix, not to mention those who pay for netflix/hulu plus). I do believe that BF will yield far lower prices too for this model (i think BB has it for $60 on BF, but i assume it's really limited in stock)

membership is free, but i assume you'll be asked to sign up when this deal opens and people start ordering.
in case you want to be ahead, just go to the link, and in the top right corner you will see log in / join. click and and create an account. But honestly, this shouldn't be gone in the first few minutes, so you have plenty of time to create an account (if necessary) when you order it.
