Sony Dash gets Netflix Watch Instantly feature
Sony today said the Dash would get a custom Netflix app by the time it reaches shops in April. The software will let it stream Watch Instantly movies and TV shows in what Sony says is ideal for watching in bed or in the kitchen. Owners won't have the option of creating the movie queue themselves but will have the option of browsing an existing queue.
The software itself will be free on the device, which uses technology from the Chumby to serve as a hybrid clock, touchscreen media player and Internet appliance. Sony still expects to sell the Dash for $199.
