 Amazing! July 8, 2008
This was my first Wi-Fi radio, and I didn't know quite what to expect. All I did was enter my WEP code (security code for my wi-fi network that you get off the router setup page) it connected right away and started streaming internet radio! I hadn't even powered up the PC on the network yet! It has a huge assortment of internet radio stations available by searching or even browsing by genre from the remote that stream in very good quality (128Kbps MP3 or WMA). I never would have believed internet radio was this easy. Just for the radio part this thing is worth it. My FM radio is useless now. The quality is better and the selection is out of this world (or at least out of this country ;-).
I can play African bongo music or rock from Russia without even firing up the PC! I think even my mom could use this once it's setup (and while I love her dearly, programming a VCR would be a stretch for her).
As a soundbridge I simply installed and fired up iTunes on my PC on the network and after setting a few windows settings as the manual suggests, the soundbridge played all the songs without any problems.
The software in this thing rocks. Obviously their goal was to get it to work as seemlessly and easily as possible and I have to say it doesn't get any easier than this.
Amazing.
Functional, but it gets hot May 29, 2008

This is a great product for anyone who wants internet radio without a computer. It looks good; it's easy to install (at least, with a Linksys wrt54g router); and it's easy to use. I would say I'm reasonably network/PC savvy, but I'm certainly no geek!
My only concern is that in standby mode it gets quite hot, even with pretty good airflow. As an energy conscious person, I dislike things that still use electricity even when they're not in use.
I love it! May 2, 2008
I recommend this product to anyone that loves music. Good bye dull FM stations! I plan to buy another one for my bedroom where I will plug in to my TV. And another one for my mom, who appreciates hearing music without the commercial interruptions.
The variety of Internet radio is awesome, and it's free. I listen to stations from the U.S., Jamaica, Latin America, Europe and Asia. It's very easy to install and does not need a computer to work.
 DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT FROM ENDLESS VARIETY May 1, 2008

Apparently I am at least the second person who had their order cancelled by Endless Variety without any explanation. I can't speak for the product since I never received it.
Loved it from the start April 26, 2008
I've owned this Roku Soundbridge for over 3 or 4 years now, haven't stopped
loving it, great interface, elegance and simplicity. Buy one if you
love radio and experience music from around the globe
