Really?

Considering how some other cable companies have not lived up to their promises regarding the giving away of zero-cost items, would someone who signs up for this really expect that they will get a Wii?

I am also wondering... does the Wii offer a movie download service like the PS3 or the Xbox 360 do? If the Wii does not offer such a service, then that might also explain the decision for Comcast to go with the Wii.

No it doesn't.

I use my PS3 to download HD movie trailers. I also have Comcast broadband. Considering how long it takes to download one of these trailers, I have some misgivings about trying Sony's HD movie download service. I will eventually try it out of course, I am curious to see how well it works.

That, or the obscure fact that it is the cheapest of the three????

I think anyone who takes Comcast up on this offer will be lucky if they get an old NES.

Supposedly w/ TVersity you can stream content to the Wii. I haven't done it yet as I am happy w/ the XB360.
