I sure hope the iPhone gets a Netflix App. I say this as I am using Netflix via my XBox 360 and loving it. I had used Netflix on my Tivo but Tivo just has to many issues with it. Works fantastic on the XBox though and now I don't even need to have any movies picked via my computer as the XBox interface allows you to pick them. This would great if I could watch movie on my iPhone (I will even take WiFi only, like the slingbox app). It would be great for traveling because I could hook my iPhone up to a TV and watch movies on a larger screen.

Any thoughts?
 
I would find this useful, but ONLY if they passed the video through the video out cables if connected. I use the Slingbox app and it's suffers from not being supported by the video out function.
 
how about just a netflix app to easily manage your queue, and search for/add new titles to your queue.

There are plenty of apps that do this specifally for Netflix! Just search for "Netflix" in the AppStore, LOL. BTW- I am using PocketFlicks and I believe it to be the best one at the moment.

hmm thanks i didn't even know that haha

I'll have to try some of them out
 
there is allot of talk

the the Netflix app will be rejected based on the fact that Netlix might dip in to Itunes store more then Apple wants but time will tell.
 
The new update of Movies offers all this new features with Netflix. CHeck it out, it's awesome!!
 
Now Playing lets you manage your Netflix account/order movies etc.
It works good. I've been using it for awhile and have never had any issues at all.
It will be nice to be able to watch on the phone tho.
