I read that too, but it doesn't mean that the Roku unit will look better.

it doesn't mean it won't, or that the XBox360 will be better either.

They called the HD quality of a Heroes episode "stunning" ...

Video quality was excellent on our end, with SD content looking terrifically watchable. A small perk -- but huge deal as far as we're concerned -- is the inclusion of a limited amount of HD content. We previewed Heroes in HD, and the quality was stunning. Right now there's only about 300 titles on offer, but we think after folks get a taste of this, they'll be begging for some expansion.

If the reports of the movie sizes at 4-6GB are correct, then the they'll stream at 4-8Mbps which is great quality for WMV9 VC-1 HD content. I do a LOT of video conversion to WMV9 VC-1 at those bitrates and it's gorgeous.
