Since I obtained the 3.1 patch I noticed Netflix was showing up. Great I thought installed it, placed my E-Mail and password loaded no issue. Saw all my instant que got really excited till I tried to stream a show with NO luck!!! Says it can not connect to the Netflix service. Tried to uninstall reboot and reinstall like one said int he review section no luck. Anyone know what is the issue? Thanks..

I'm seeing the same thing on mine, so I guess it's not a temporary outage of the server as I had hoped. Is it still not working for you? I just tried it this morning.

As of right now this is what the official word is from Acer from there support page

Does the Acer Iconia Tab A500 or A501 work with Netflix?
The Netflix app is available in the Android Market. The Netflix app will allow you to manage your queue as well as other features, but does not currently support video playback.

It might be up to netflix now...although I'd like to know if anyone is able to get it fully functional
 
From reading around there was a fix for this in Europe for a little while and Netflix patched it right up so it wouldn't work anymore.Don't know if it was intentional or not.
