Not Sure Where To Ask This Question, But

I would like some feed back about ROKU. Considering buying one instead of paying extra cable costs.

I have every channels they offer because my husband wants his sports. We aren't rich by any means but don't go out a lot and rarely take vacations, but we have 4 1080 HD TV's. My internet is with Verizon and want to get a bundle with them, but the bundles with lots of sports don't have FSTV, RT and alternative programming I want. Also any movie channels aren't offered.

I checked the web page and saw different types of ROKU's available, but not sure what extra equipment I have to buy or is there are hidden costs. Only heard about ROKU recently, sounds good... but you know the saying about that.

Is this something I want to do. I can renegotiate with DISH, but FIOS is offering me 4 receivers instead of the 2 I have, so 2 of my TV's have crappy pictures and may as well be hooked to a TV antenna.

Suggestions?

and think I've figured it out. Was having a problem between a wall mount or a small box. Seems the wall mount (small) ROKU is very handy and can be used from TV to TV. And since I'll have cable I won't have to pay anything extra from the channels I want, unless I see something that I really, really want.

Thanks for your interest anyway.
