Netflix gadget? how cool- but.....

When I see the word gadget, especially on a Microsoft site like msn.com I think Vista desktop gadget.  Don't you?

 

So when I saw the headline today that said "Netflix coming to gadgets" I was thinking- how cool is that?  Right there on my desktop, seeing, maybe managing my Netflix.

No so fast.

 

The gadgets being referenced are televisions and what not for viewing streaming-like content provided by Netflix.  Yawn.  Hook up your laptop to a nice flat panel as an extended desktop.  Right?

 

So Netflix....you listening?  Get me a gadget for my Vista desktop?  k?
