Streaming online video to my Plasma
Is there any device I can use to stream, say, Netflix streamed movies to my Panasonic Plasma? I have a Panny that I can install cards into, maybe there's some sort of wireless card I can plug into for web stuff? I've read people talking about PS3's being able to do something like this. I don't have one but with the Blu-Ray developments, I'm considering one. If I could use it to view Netflix as well, that would be pretty cool.
What's the scoop?

Well, I've always had problems running video from my laptop to my tv. I get my desktop to show up on the tv and the video player window will show up on my tv, but I just get a black box where the video should be playing.
Plus there are sound issues doing it that way as well. I guess I could run sound from my headphone port, but there's till the issue of video not transferring correctly.

You will still potentially have video compatibility issues with a streaming device. So that's something to fix, not to let stop you. The 2 mentioned are probably your main choices at this time for wireless.
