Looks like PS3 owners looking to get in on Netflix's instant streaming will be ready to go as soon as this week. This showed up in my inbox this morning:

More like ask Netflix (which has already been done)." @Th3dz said:

Since i live in the UK and will never experience the joy of Netflix or its connectivity with the PS3, i'm going to need a QL to get past this painful time of my life.

I'm pissed that I did not receive the email. I guess I have to wait for who know how long before I get mine. :(

Getting mine Friday as well. Curious to see what the UI will look like.
My disk is in the mail. I should have it tomorrow. Curious as to how the interface will be.
It's definitely not as convenient as it is on my Xbox since i need a disk, but i'll give it a whirl.
Heck, i hope i can have both my Xbox and PS3 as "activated devices"
(yes, this is an xpost)

wait, was i supposed to fill out a form or something? cuz i have yet to get any confirmation, and all i did was enter my e-mail
I've been using PlayOn until now, but this will make it much much much easier. I'm excited.
