Consumer Electronics Mar 6,2013 0

Roku has announced the Roku 3, the latest version of its flagship media player that will go on sale online Wednesday for $99. The company says that the new player is the fastest and most powerful streaming player to-date. It features a new interface, a remote with built-in headphone jack for private listening.

The new Roku interface features a streamlined layout to provide quicker access 750+ channels. The Roku Channel Store and Search are now fully integrated into the home screen, and both have been redesigned.
