PlayOn brings Hulu, Netflix viewing to Android beta testers

Whlie Hulu and Netflix still don't have first-party apps in the Android Market, PlayOn users will soon be able to tap into the popular video services on their Android smartphones. Once again, it's PlayOn which has a solution. PlayOn released an iOS version back in August 2010 and is now passing out invites to its customers (like this one sent to us by Chris H.) to join an expanded Android beta test. There are a couple of prerequisites involved, of course. You need a a licensed copy of PlayOn and a device running Android 2.2 Froyo or better, and PlayOn also only works over Wi-Fi -- at least for now.
The invite also offers encouragement for those who don't make the beta cut: PlayOn for Android is "very close" to being released into the wild.

Has anyone ever gotten PlayOn to work more than twice?

Playon now streams to a UK GT-i9000 (Galaxy S) running Froyo 2.2.
I haven't been contacted by Playon or asked to be on the beta. The lastest dowload just works (for me at least).
