After looking it up...
My PC is hooked up to my TV so I don't need one.
Seems interesting for less tech-savvy people though.

I was checking out the thing last week on their site, seems pretty handy for ease of use, cost and setup.

Interesting device. Might be something worth getting my mom. Once you buy it, is that it? I mean I know you need to pay for Hulu Plus or Netflix, but are there extra costs involved in the device?

Nope, it is pretty much plug and play.

I have a HD, it is pretty cool. I already had a netflix/hulu acct but there's other ones you can find out there that are "secret" channels (porn, ustream, some others). I mainly just use it for netflix and hulu though

Unfortunately both the $59 & $79 models do not include a Ethernet port. Only the $99 model does.
