The Fire TV has been removed from sale, no idea why, its far faster than the Fire Stick, must be a price thing as it costs twice as much, a much better experience. I recently setup a fire stick for my niece, and it seemed very slow compared to my Fire TV.

I suppose it would be pretty stupid to say UK Version?

Still now downgrade or upgrade. Sent emails Saturday. No update via regular menu; no update via secret menu. Anyone have a Kindle Fire TV or other product that has a good Plex client?

I just got an Amazon fire TV for my birthday, fast and responsive, Plex works great...

I got a Fire Tv and its wonderful, all the apps are fast and easy, not like my Roku 3 which needs a reboot to keep channels working or I get the 'cant run due to insufficient storage' error. I sideloaded Kodi, so all my needs are met. Haven't used the Roku for a month. Shame it was great when I firs...

Is this out for UK Roku's yet?

There may have been a broken wire in the cable, and if you shortened it, you may have cut the broken part out.

How about some new models in the Uk?

No, either in Forum posts or PM's

I guess they've been told to keep tight lipped..

Whilst this is interesting news, I can't justify an investment of a three figure sum for a grey market import that may not work with basic services going forward. Even if it works for now. It would be nice to hear from Roku themselves if they have an issue with Sky forcing them to pull out of the U...

My Roku 3 works fine with the BBC, still on V7.6

My Roku 3 in the Uk has no special buttons on it, just how I like it.

I've thought this for a while... I'm thinking of getting an Amazon fire TV.
I think Rupert Murdoch (who has a lot of shares in Roku) is blocking any new models being released in the UK as they will compete with Sky.

I spoke too soon, its doing it again... a reboot cured it, but its going to need a reboot every couple of days :-( I wonder if the Roku's internal storage is wearing out? Its 3 or 4 years old. It was fine before the 7.6 update, how about you guys, when did it start doing this with regards to the las...

Ok, I swapped the 4gb card that's been in since I got the Roku 3 for a 2gb one. All seems ok now, I reformatted the 4gb and put it back in and all the errors came back. It seems the card is corrupt, although no errors were generated on formatting to fat32 or the Roku's own formatting function. What ...
