I am not a fan of that remote control at all. I constantly sit on it, skipping through shows; and I don't get the purpose of the touchpad vs a d-pad.

No one uses the trackpad on their playstation controllers, why did apple run with the same idea?

I'm a big fan of the Roku boxes.

If I recall correctly, Roku boxes frequently scan the network for other devices. I keep mine on a VLAN that only allows communication out to the net.
