I'm looking to set an older friend I know up with a way to watch Netflix as she does not have cable.
Only requirements is that it's cheap, has Netflix capability, and an easy to use interface.
If anyone wants to sell or has an extra lying around let me know.
Thanks.

Isn't a brand new Roku only like $40? There are also plenty of inexpensive BD players with Netflix built-in. Define "cheap".

New Roku costs $50. I'm not opposed to spending that much, I'm just looking for anyone who might have an unused one or wants to unload one. They must be nice because Craigslist and eBay are coming up pretty much empty below that price point.
Cost is an issue because it is an older neighbor who is getting back on her feet after being out of work and going through some financial hardship.
I am buying this for her so just want to make sure I check all available sources before getting a new one.
