It works well if you have a good server. Limited for stereo now but will update to DD 5.1 soon. Full review here:

I love these alternatives to the PS3′s Hulu Plus. I’ve been using PlayOn streaming from my PC to my PS3 for a few years now, pretty similar to Orb too :) It has a ton of pre-installed channels, as well as a big community developing more channels for additional sites’ video/music content :)

Does ORB have a deal with Hulu for this? If not, won’t Hulu just block it like they do the Boxee Box? If Hulu wanted their free content available on the PS3, it would be there already… right?

Don’t get me wrong – I want this to work!

Up to 720p. But of course it depends on the source material. Free Hulu streams are 480p max.

Thanks for pointing that out, I’ll correct it right away.

Wow this is a very exciting new product. I would really like to know if it provides streaming content in HD?
