Netflix - Ireland & UK, working for anyone?

So, Netflix finally launched today in Ireland and the UK. I got it working on my PS3, but can't see the option in the SMP to access my Netflix account. Any idea's? Or will this feature be unlocked with a future firmware upgrade?

Yeah, working here.

 

My problem, so far, is no sound via HDMI or optical audio on HD films, ok on SD TV shows? Any ideas?

Do you have flashed FW V01.05.18? There should be more than 15 services...

I'm not on the latest firmware yet, but i read thru the spec's about the new upgrade and it didn't mention anything about netflix.

 

I only have 15 services because i'm in ireland, we don't get spotify and other goodness like that. We generally have accuweather, youtube, etc

 

I'll try the firmware upgrade tonight and see how i get on, at least some folks are getting netflix working over here.

I'm in ireland too and I just upgraded my WD TV Live streaming player to the new firmware (1.06.04). The netflix app now appears unfotunately anytime i open it i get "unable to connect to netflix. please try again or visit www.netflix.com/tvhelp".

 

I have a ps3, laptop and samsung galaxy tab all connecting to netflix successfully on the same network so not sure whats wrong.
