"To the last person on Earth (that reads this site) who can't already stream Netflix to their home theater in at least four different ways: if you have a 2010 Panasonic HDTV or Blu-ray player your sometime is now, as the video streaming widget originally promised way back during CES should have recently shown up in a software update. You'll find it in the VIERA Cast menu next to existing tools like Amazon VOD, Skype and Pandora (pictured above) unless of course you're sporting one of last year's models, which are sadly and inexplicably left wanting. If there's any confusion, peep the press release after the break to make sure your specific model made the cut, we'll be double checking for a 5.1 audio option on any of our Watch Instantly movies, again."

If you've got a 2010 Panasonic TV then Engadget have got a press release from Panasonic saying that there should be a software update which enables you to get Netflix movies. As we see bigger internet connections in the home we can expect to see more and more services like this added to the TV's we buy as manufacturers aim to make them the center of all home entertainment. The full press release is on Engadget as well as a link to the TV's that will get this software update.
