My own little update: After hooking up the Boxee Box I have discovered that my wireless connection problems were actually from my home theater system. It has wireless rear speakers that happen to operate on the 2.4 GHz spectrum. Turn it on and Internet dies. Turn it off, and Internet comes back up. Yeah...
Boxee Box is still waiting on Netflix/Hulu/Vudu--but those should be out in a few weeks. In the meantime, it has its own online content, plus the ability to play pretty much any file format you throw at it. That's the downside of Roku players. If you have a lot of local media, you may not be able to play it all because they only support a few formats. Boxee supports pretty much every A/V format known to mankind.
