Roku is slowly entering the wide world of retail. The middle tier XD model hit Best Buy retail stores a few months back and now the same model is available in Walmart stores. Roku just made it official with a press release although the streamer has been available from Walmart.com for over a month now. Pricing is slightly lower with the XD model going for $78 rather than the $79 on Roku.com. A buck is a buck, right?
Now that Roku and Walmart are playing ball, it's probably only a matter of time until Walmart's own VUDU service launches on the media streamer. VUDU made a name for itself a few years back to being committed to the highest quality HD streams possible -- first run movies helped too. This wasn't mentioned in the press release, but the service would certainly be a welcomed addition to Roku's offering. *fingers crossed*Source: http://www.crunchgear.com/2011/06/13/roku-xd-now-available-in-walmart-stores-nationwide/
