Just read the same post... YES!!! Finally! ...the earlier apk for rooted TF101s with patch was awesome for sure, but it's great we're finally getting some official love (and support).
Yes, I also own a Xoom running 3.2 and you can sideload the Netflix app on it and it works fine. I am waiting for it to show up in the Market though so I can get the automatic Netflix updates as opposed to the sideloaded version that you must manually update. Hopefully, the TF will get this working in 3.2... Keeping my fingers crossed...

That requires root and the installation of a patch. I have no time for such things (including messing around with unrooting when then next TF update comes), and so having an official Netflix app will be most welcome.

Theyre claiming Netflix(us only) on their site, so possibly after 3.2
Keeping my fingers crossed. I've held out on rooting this far. Love my transformer and honestly can live without netflix on it, but it would surely be a plus to have it added.

Old cheesy B movies and crap peeps don't wanna see. Nah I'm a Netflix subscriber and I do use it a couple times a month at least and it would just be nice to have since many other devices have it is all.

For me it adds an extra component to the transformer that other tablets already have. At this point android is playing catchup to Ipad. (well..everyone is)
They all are, but android has a good chance to get there, but they need to add what competitors offer and then add their own extra spice.
Personally, i have netflix enabled in all my tvs at home, but would love to have it on my TF for road trips. If i stay on a hotel, tether off the phone in the car..it just adds more thrills to an already good device.
Oh, and the TF has replaced the newspaper and book in my restroom. BEST reading material for when taking care of business.. Imagine watching some movie while pooping..lol Legs would fall asleep..

I don't understand WTF is up with Netflix and the TF. It works fine sideloaded on my unrooted Xoom and even my old Viewsonic GTablet has an official Netflix app in the market and it works great. It's rooted but it's Froyo 2.2! It does load in portrait mode but plays back perfect in landscape...

Just wanted to add a happy voice to the discussion here. I'm involved in social media as a consultant, I must always be on, always connected, using my TF via a wifi hotspot on my phone is a LOT more pleasant an experience than working via my phone with it's tiny little screen
Love sitting outside on my porch,working while sipping cofee without having to lug a hot,heavy laptop with me.
Thank you Asus for this terrfic device, I also thank you also for listening & responding to the feedback users are giving you on this forum!
i agree, this is a pretty awesome device
Ya~
ASUS did it well this time. Good job !
same here.
The only thing stopping me from using the TF exclusively is that there is ONE app not available yet....when it is...bye bye laptop....you' stayin' at home!

I agree, this is the best Android tablet release to date. ASUS has done a great job in designing (and pricing) this device.
I use it for business, and this weekend my wife asked if she could use it to look up something on the internet - it is now on her birthday wish list. She is an iPhone user, BTW.
I love my TF a little more each day! I love the freedom it gives me, no more having to pack and lug a laptop bag around with me!
Its the unhappy folks who tend to make their voice heard, while the happy rest of us enjoy life, right? glad to see someone give praise to the awesome device Im sittin on my porch drinkin a beer, listening to the radio and browsing the web on my tablet right now (colorado) Much love ASUS, and asus, please give us tegra3 transformer2 as soon as possible! haha

If he's referring to netflix then just use splashtop and stream it as it runs GREAT on the tablet. Being able to text message, make a call, and watch netflix is a great feeling
I used to ask myself what was the point of a tablet and now I can finally understand the answer to that question.
Next week I think I am reordering mine. I sent it back to Amazon because it was having problems, but I am moving in a few days so I will wait until the move is done.
I like the lazy factor of a tablet I still feel much more productive on my PC, but I can't lounge around and poke at things on it. I also kind of miss dungeon defenders... I was thinking about the fact that the TF2 is just over the horizon, but I can afford to get a new TF and gift that to my little sister. That seems like a win-win if I ever heard one.

Has anyone heard when the GT10.1 might be getting Netflix? Or Google Movies?
I love this tablet, but I don't like the lack of optimized tablet apps and the missing Netflix. I'm debating whether to hold onto this tablet and wait because I really do love the look and feel of the tablet and of Honeycomb or if I want to return it for an iPad 2 and come back to an Android tablet in a couple months (or a year) when there are more apps. So...that's why I'm curious about Netflix.

I've tested it and can verify that it does not work on the Transformer also. The app installs, you can open the app, log in to your account, browse movies even, but no video playback; it gives an error.

Not sure who told you it works on Xoom but I own a Xoom and Netflix doesn't even show up in the Market so I can tell you it DOES NOT work on a stock Xoom runnng Android 3.2. I'm sure it works on a hacked ROM but it will even run on a hacked Viewsonic GTablet...
*EDIT*
I stand corrected! See post #12
Mea Culpa
I tried it and no go on the Transformer, but, it works on my MyTouch 4G. Seems wrong somehow.

It doesn't show up on my G2x on the market but it does work if you sideload it. I think the situation is supposedly the same with the Xoom. Unfortunately, it doesn't work on the TF :/

Unlikely. More likely they're returning us to the status quo by putting out an update to remove the (didn't really work anyway) support for the Transformer (and maybe other models).
So just an FYI, I checked my Market on my Viewsonic GTab and Netflix is there! I downloaded it and I am watching movies right now streaming from Netflix! OMG, the GTab is Android Froyo 2.2! It is a Tegra2 chip but I would never have figured it would work on this legacy tablet before my latest and greatest Transformer and Xoom. LOL

Goes to show that Netflix is just screwing around. If they would "allow" the Transformer to work.. it would work.
I'm in no rush. Netflix is pissing me off lately. First their crazy price hikes and now they're playing God to which devices can access their services.
Screw 'em.
So I know I'm crazy, but not insane. Checked the TF microsite here last week and plainly saw Netflix was listed under the 'Special APP' section. Happened to look at it for something else today and it's gone. Just an observation.
I, for one, am bummed.
Yeah, yeah, I know I can root and patch...

I like Netflix. I like the Transformer. Why can't they play nice? But with this simple Xoom patch, it works fine on the Transformer.... So let's hope Netflix(?) does something about it? Or is it Asus(?) needing to do something? Or could it be Nvidia(?) I don't know!

Well, Netflix is not officially supported on any Honeycomb tablet other than the new Lenovo. Could be that Asus asked for permission to included the necessary lib file and Netflix said no (exclusive contract?).

It's odd, because it has the same price as the other high end tablet and it was the most popular as i said i considered it a NEXUS tablet, and it will probably not be the second one to receive ICS either, that will be the asus transformer
It's crap because not only wa the xoom branded as a GED ...
... not only did the Android team happily blog that ICS compiles for Xoom right out the gate with no tweaks ...
... not only did team EOS get leaked Chinese drivers to make everything work ...
... Motorola _still_ couldn't be bothered to get the update out in time.
Seriously they lined themselves up to have almost zero work on this port ... and they still blew it.
i also bought the xoom thinking it would be treated differently as it was the first "google tab" i have yet to see any special favoritism towards this device.

What a shocker Motorola borked an update, I guess they are too busy putting out 3 new phones and tablets every week to be bothered to do updates if google doesn't fix them they are done
I paid more for this thing when other tablets were out just so I didn't have to wait for updates...... Guess I was wrong
For the record the "test" wifi users signed up for last week still has not been released
Or maybe they don't want to look like dicks because Google bought them. Maybe Google want everyone to see that Motorola isn't its bff..... or its just the same old Motorola doing what they do best...nothing. you know what will put a cherry on top? Locking the boot loader.
From the sound of things for the soak test Wifi users were signing up for, Google is in control of the update, which makes sense, since it is a GED after all. It may not be Motorola's choice/decision.
