NetFlix APP for FiOS - When?

[DaveMasters]

When will FiOs have a NetFlix APP/Widget? It seems to me that this enhancement would be popular.

Thanks

I think they are sticking with their competing service VOD/Flexview and the newly acquired Redbox Instant

Not likely to happen. See Redbox Instant that is currently being beta tested. https://www.redboxinstant.com/rbgatekeeper/

Beta testing is limited to a few. If you are interested, they may still be allowing some people. When it was first announced to the public, they had stated that there would be an open beta, but like much testing, there comes a point where they limit who can participate.

Also there are some videos available from the Consumer Electronics Show 2013, and some can be found here at my thread.

At the bottom of my post that started this thread, there is a photo that shows the TV screen for Redbox Instant by Verizon. It was taken at an angle because of the crowed, and there is a bit of glare.

Also see this post of mine regarding streaming content. Some of the Samsung devices will do the New Redbox Instant by Verizon, The 75 Verizon channels currently available, and probably Netflix too. The Rlu Ray players are getting or have been smart, but TVs and the players are getting smarter am waiting for Redbox Instant for Xbox, it has Netflix if I want, also it streams Verizon channels. LG Blu Ray will perform many of the streaming functions, for Verizon, but I am not sure about RB Instant at this time. The RB Instant Beta is a work in progress but so far it looks nice even on my Iphone.
