I'm not expecting miracles, but is it at least watchable? This is one of the biggest reasons I may order one tomorrow. So who's tried it and how does it work?

I know you posted this in the Vzn forum but it works fine on my Att iPhone 4. Cant speak for Vzn for sure since it has different 3G speeds but I bet it will be fine as well

Yes! It works great. Watched full episodes of futurama with as little as two bars with no interruption or lag.

On my AT&T iPhone it works just fine, I watched a SVU episode on 3G without any skips or anything! :)

Yes! Mine started out blurry, but quickly got great! Just a note though, it uses a LOT of data, so you don't want to be going over that unlimited mark!

I've been watching the SVU marathon on USA all day. I watch it every time it comes on. It's one of my favorite shows, if not the favorite. :D

Watching White Collar now, which I also love.

SVU? Do you mean Law and Order: SVU?

Of course!

This quickly went from a thread about Netflix on ViP to an SVU fan club thread lol :p

I think it's the combination of Mariska and Chris (Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler) that makes the show. Their chemistry is undeniable.

Mariska for life. I love the second season opener with her in her short hair on her little cell phone in B/W lol

Really? You guys like Olivia as much as Stabler?

Not that she's bad, she's definately a great character, but Stabler is so unstable.. and named so perfectly. Love that guy! (in a very hetero way)

EDIT: Too bad my wife hates Law and Order :(

I much prefer Stabler. You never know, he might just rip your head off at any moment, but only for the right reasons. ;)
