Cons: It plays only a few minutes of video before crashing. Powers off and must be restarted from the menu to resume.
Other Thoughts: RUN

Rating: 5/5Excellent!
Pros: Easy install, a few minor hiccups during streaming but probably caused by a weak signal. So far it's doing very well with wireless accessing the home network and streaming Netflix. Really happy with the audio and video quality of the streaming. Haven't tried recording anything yet.
Cons: Don't like the remote but will live with it. Doesn't support 3D but that's OK with me.
Other Thoughts: I was able to get it up and running with Netflix with almost no need to look at the manual, only used the Quick start instructions. I did have to read the manual to access my PC on the network but that wasn't all that difficult and it works great! All in all my wife and I are very satisfied. If I have to hardwire it, that's OK too.

Rating: 5/5Another Great Player
Pros: Very good at playing streaming movies from Netflix and VUDU, I used stream music from Pandora but my Onkyo receiver does that also so I use it. All Blu-ray movies have played excellent. I have even downloaded movies from VUDU to the HD and that works great too.
Cons: Only had one older movie that did not play, it did a firmware update since then so I may give that movie another try.
Other Thoughts: I have this hooked to a wired network, but I also have a 570 that I am running wireless and it works excellent even for streaming HDX off of VUDU so I would guess this wifi setup would work just as well.

Rating: 5/5LG Network Blu-ray Disc Player with WiFi & 250GB HDD BD590
Pros: Easy to install and use. Have a LogiTech Universal Remote and was easy to set up with it. Use it to access NetFLex and my wife loves it. Beats the cost of Pay TV and you have a real choice of what you want to watch.
Cons: Did not like the remote that came with it.

Rating: 5/5great blu ray player
Pros: plays all types of files and decodes all audio formats, including .mkv and xvid hd (which are rare formats to find on blu ray players). the built in hard drive is great and also has a usb port to hook up my portable hdd.
Cons: 250gb built in hard drive filled up pretty quick, not really a con because i can still hook up the external. i believe the bd550 is the exact same thing except for the hdd.
Other Thoughts: unknown if u can install a bigger hard drive and remove the 250 gb one. probably void ur warranty but i wouldnt mind being able to put in a 1 tb drive.

Rating: 4/5Very Pleased with LG's BD590
Pros: On Screen Menu
I was pleased to find that the menu system is simple and intuitive for me on LG's BD590 thus it should be usable for both my wife and daughter.
A range of Internet services that actually work well
I sought the best internet augmented player that features actually work. I received my choice LG BD590 several days ago. I had Netflix, Youtube and the previously unknown to me, Pandora, all working by 4 pm without technical support and with only hasty glances at the manual.
Cons: Does not play alll video formats such as .avi and that of Microsoft Windows 7's Windows Media Center
Will never have 3D ability
I found NetFlix's registration initially confusing. LG BD590's setup provides a "code" . . . but not the code that will you need to register your LG BD590 from your PC. The code that you need to register your LG BD590 online with NetFlix . . . from your PC . . . is provided only when you try to play your first streaming NetFlix movie from the LG BD590's. Setup provides you a code that I suggest you record but don't use it for registering your BD590 with NetFlix from your PC.
Other Thoughts: I did not load the included Nero MediaHome Bundle Disc since I am not clear about its value for me.
Pandora works when you sign on Pandora from your LG BD590 after creating a free account at Pandora from your PC. Just use the same email address and password that you created while registering with Pandora from your PC. Keep your password reasonable since you will be using your LG BD590's remote to enter it. I plugged my keyboard into the BD590's USB port but it was not recognized as a keyboard.
DLNA took me two days to successfully use. So far I am only seeing its MAC address from Windows 7 Home Group under "ALL Networks" and not under "Local network" and not with its name or IP address listed though I'm allowed to provide it access. My PC's pictures and the videos streamed without an errors though the allowed Video formats may be limited. I watched the Blu-Ray version of Gold Finger last night and the details and overall picture were impressive.
