My app reviewed...

http://www.whatsoniphone.com/reviews/instant-queue-add-netflix-review

Quite a good review, they are looking for DVD support, but that's what all the other apps do, and this one is intended to make it easier to deal with instant watching. If I added all the DVD stuff then it would be much more complex. Also the full size boxshots for each movie are only for instant movies, they are used in the HD versions of the on-TV display.

Good grief I'm so tired of everyone, including that reviewer, complaining about the DVD queue. Your app is aptly named and it's exactly what I want. I could care less about managing my DVD queue from my phone. What I want is to sit on my couch in front of my TV and manage my INSTANT QUEUE ONLY from my phone. Thanks for creating this, I hope you are able to continue improving it.

Thanks Toby, I appreciate the comment. There are now twelve Netflix apps on the iPhone, and I built this one specifically to solve this one problem as simply as possible.

I have been working on a nicer user interface, but have some simpler ideas that add even more ways to find movies with minor changes to the current clunky interface, so I think I'll get them out first....
