I'd be lying if I said I wish I hadn't tried iPhlix for free... In any case, thanks for the review and thanks to Cyrus for the app - maybe Netflix should adopt it as their default, seeing as they seem uninterested in creating their own?

I'm working with the Netflix API devs on improvements to their system to help me out here. That said, all data is cached locally on your iPhone. So once you take the initial hit, you'll be all good from that point on. I definitely recommend using PocketFlix on wifi several times before switching to a slower network like Edge or 3g.

I had been disappointed with the mobile web interface for Netflix and was about to make my way through all the apps when this happened. So far it works great since I can use it and add things to my instant queue while in front of my XBox 360. @Joe Yeah I was shocked when it updated last week.

Except Now Playing is free. http://flickr.com/photos/elmco/3272175360/ Were you able to test the two against each other to see if there is a huge difference?
