Re: Christmas Gifts

Learned this from my Dad, keep a list throughout the year. When the wife mentions that she likes something, make a note. At the end of they year you'll have plenty of good ideas.

Re: Christmas Gifts

this could be for "us" but it's really for her. we got a smart tv over the summer and i mounted our old 720p on the wall in our bedroom.

she loves watching all these british shows on netflix, i've just been hooking up the smart blu-ray player that we have - so she can watch in the bedroom.

i'll get her either the amazon fire stick or the roku streaming stick for xmas. any experience w either?

thanks giantone, i decided on the roku after watching a bunch of comparisons and reviews on youtube. the roku interface is much easier to use and my fiance isn't the most tech savvy individual.

Re: Christmas Gifts

Also, if you do Roku, get the Plex app. If you "acquire" movies like I do, you can stream them right from your home computer to your TV.
