The picture is AMAZING over 4G. It was a long wait, but I'm glad it's here!
I had pretty much given up on ever getting it, since the last I'd read about it indicated that it was coming, but only on new phones with some new DRM built in to the chip. I didn't think the Evo was getting it.

wow really, i saw some comments on the market saying CM7 Evo is having issues. Maybe those are in only isolated instance. Netflix for CM7, good to know.

Running Great!!! Can't complain about the performance
...However, the netflix app sucks. I highly doubt there's any way that it could be a worse than this steaming bowl of crap that they served up to the android market.
Edit: On the bright side, I guess we can chalk this up as yet ANOTHER first for the Evo!
Can anyone report whether or not this app supports closed captions for the hearing impaired? I don't want to restart my Netflix membership only to find it doesn't have closed captions and I can't refund the monthly rental fee.
I'm hearing impaired and can't watch movies without closed captions. Can someone test this? Subtitles would be good but both subtitles and closed captions would encourage me to re-join Netflix.
LOL, everyone is excited. I like the HBO on the GO app. Don't have a subscription with my cable company but my login for my account is still active so I was able to use the app. Now that's an awesome app and its free. You can watch your favorite movies and shows.

sorry... i could not find the closed caption settings..
"In other Netflix news, the company has also rolled out a little gift for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users -- the iOS app now finally boasts support for subtitles."
so.. i would guess.. you are SOL..
ps.. my data consumption will go way up!!!

Thank you very much for testing this, much appreciated. I'll keep an eye on this app as they might implement CC and subs at a later date.
Yeah, lol, your data consumption is going to soar.

Just watched the latest Star Trek movie on 3G. No buffering, no pixelating, no issues.
Uhura never looked hotter.
Also, used my $12 quickshippers extended battery (3500 mAh). Started w/100% at the beginning of the movie and ended w/68% after a 2 hour movie. Not bad.

Every time I try and open the app while on WiFi I get: "Problem loading Netflix, please restart application later. (13001)"! If I open in 3g it opens fine. then I que up a movie, hit pause, and then turn on WiFi, and then go back and finish what I'm watching.
Anyone else getting that error?

I only bought my Evo a few months ago. I knew it was almost a year old but after researching I found it had a proven track record. I'm very happy with this phone! Now Netflix gives me one more reason to love it

Tried it on two separate WiFi and two separate phones with no problem.
I also tried 4g and it worked fine. Will try 3g when I have to.
