Default Tablets with Netflix?
So I know the iPad does Netflix streaming right? But what about the rest? For Android does the Xoom offer Netflix streaming in Honeycomb? Or the Palm webOS tablets? The BB Playbook?

Basically I'm crowd-sourcing some Netflix streaming tablet options here.

Xoom should be getting Netflix soon, nVidia and Moto and Netflix are working together on it, it's got all the DRM needed built in already. Right now all I can do is run the official app, no actual streaming yet... Not sure any others have been confirmed to be getting it, Xoom is the only one I remember hearing about but I don't exactly seek out tablet news unless it's Kal El anymore.

The one I'm working on does Netflix streaming currently, but it occurred to me today that, the iPad aside, I couldn't think of another tablet that does Netflix streaming also.

Is it an LG model? I think the first gen Galaxy Tab can do Netflix with the modded APK.

Oh right the GSlate, I didn't think to look that one up. I'm pretty sure the Acer, Asus, Dell, etc... those can't do Netflix streaming to the best of my knowledge. Modded APKs I'm not counting, just what's available via retail.

Not even sure if the G Slate will even do it out of the box, was just asking cause I figured maybe you had some magical NDA tablet

Not NDA'ed, I'm pretty sure the EVO View 4G has been product announced, just not reviewed yet so not sure how much I can say in the way of product features n' such.

If you sideload the app you can run Netflix on the Xoom and the Galaxy Tab 10.1... No Transformer yet but I'm sure it's coming. I'm about to install it on my Xoom now, waiting for the download to finish.
