Sony Dash To Get Netflix

I’m still not convinced this $199 Chumby-powered Sony Dash fills a need. I had a Chumby briefly, and returned it because my iPhone did so much more, so much better. Even if Sony’s hardware solution is better than the Chumby, I’m left asking why I need one when the iPhone, Nexus One, etc exist. Anyone? Where would you put it? Home office? Or is it a fancy $200 alarm clock you play with or watch 30 minutes before bed every night? I want to like it, but I think a netbook or tablet fill the gap between smart phone and desktop better. http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/16/sony-dash-given-ability-to-stream-tvs-and-movies-from-netflix-n/
