I'm very glad I was wrong, but I'm going to be in the bathroom wiping egg off my face for a little while.
I'm just glad that we don't have to wait until Saturday to see something official on this--and having it in the apps store would seem pretty official to me.
Personally, I really love Netflix and use it a lot including the instant viewing so this would be a big reason for me to jump on the iPad band wagon.

LOL, some people were so adamant about it too. I've work for Netflix(for 3 years now), I spent like half the thread defending the Netflix app to be called a liar like 20 times.....lol. Hope you all enjoy it, don't slam our servers this weekend with your instant viewing!
Sweet!!!! Netflix is in the iTunes store which means I was officially right all along. I knew it wasn't an april fools joke. Woohoo.
I told you it was coming! hehehe...
Hope you enjoy it RWILLIAMS! May I suggest adding Wall E and The Office Seasons to your que!
There will be(eventually). About a year ago they started working on one here at our offices in LA. It was to be wifi only at the time, for some reason it always got held up. Then they started working on the iPad version more for the past few months, I think theylll get the Touch/iPhone version out ASAP. We like our subscribers, and new ones they keep us in business
Yes you did, my good man.
I'll never doubt you again. I won't have an iPad, but your other services are outstanding, so keep up the good work. I look forward to the iPod Touch version. I'll be scooping that one up immediately upon release.
3G iPad Compatibility
Does anyone know if the 3G version of the iPad will be able to stream Netflix using this app when connected via 3G and not WiFi?

Haha. This was actually a massive april fools joke played on you by your friends and family to trick you into making a fake hulu screenshot and uploading it.
I am in your cousin billy. Everyone here was in on the joke!
APRIL FOOL!
The iPhone screen is too small for watching videos IMO, but I know some people would want it.
Just downloaded it...
AS far as streaming via 3g I can tell you that I have been streaming Hulu and netflix fullscreen for over a year now in 2g and 3g with my MBP and at&t wireless card ( when it gets a connection) 3g would not do HD for me in any of my attempts. So I believe that it will be able to. Figured, I can sync and immediately have some apps to try out right outta the box.

Thanks. Hopefully you will join us soon.For those of you getting the iPad this weekend, I hope you enjoy it. Let us know how things go.
