Well, Best Buy has an Insignia model (NS-BRDVD3) for $99 on Black Friday I believe that does Netflix.

However, right now, there is a wireless version on sale for $129.99 at Best buy that has all the same features but also includes wireless connectivity so you don't have to hard wire to your router. This, for now, is the cheapest you will find a bluray player with wireless internet built in.

There is also the LG BD370 going for about $129.99 on Amazon I believe that has Netflix access, though once again, only via a hardwired ethernet port.

I don't know if you are a stickler for a certain brand or not.

But in general, here are the cheapest models with Netflix streaming:

Samsung 1600/1590
LG BD370
Insignia NS-BRDVD3
Insignia NS-WBRDVD (wireless) - best value IMO

I bought the wireless Insignia for the GF a few weeks back (at 150) and she loves it (though she mostly loves the wireless streaming).

On Sunday I picked up another for my Sister for Christmas.

The two Insignia players are probably the cheapest options for a Netflix BR player.

Does this one have any of the standard complaints that seem to hover about the NS-BRDVD3 (crap remote, player noise, poor upscaling)? Does it come with any problems at all (I've heard some wireless connectivity problems, but really that's it).

I have the NS-BRDVD3 and I like it pretty well (it's a bedroom TV). The noise really only happens when the disc first loads, but is quiet during play. The remote IS a bit awkward, and you DO have to aim it just right, but the fact that I am less than 10 feet away from my player doesn't make it too bad. I have been watching a lot of my JUSTICE LEAGUE, THE COMPLETE SERIES (the last SD I'll probably ever buy, lol), and it plays just fine.

I don't use the Netflix features of this player. If I did, I'd probably go wireless. Additionally, I have a 42" Sharp Aquos in my room and the distance between the bottom of the TV screen and the base is almost EXACTLY the height of the NS-BRDVD3. Based upon the dimensions of the wireless version that I am seeing online, I know I wouldn't be able to have the player positioned so perfectly in this gap!!

I will be going back to BB on Black Friday for the free Blu-Ray movie with purchase of this player, though after the craziness is settled down, as I am still within my 30-day purchase period to do a return/re-buy. FREE COPY OF BEETLEJUICE!
