SAN JOSE, Calif. – June 7, 2012 — NETGEAR^®, Inc. (NASDAQGM: NTGR),a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today announced the NETGEAR NeoTVTM Pro HD Streaming Player (NTV200S), the latest addition to the NETGEAR NeoTV streaming player family of products. NeoTV Pro offers high quality streaming content from a wide variety of online channels and is the world’s first streaming player to offer wireless display capability using Intel® Wireless Display (WiDi). 

With the NeoTV Pro, users can choose from a large selection of streaming movies, TV shows and music from streaming services like Netflix, Hulu Plus, Vudu, YouTube, Pandora and many others, and instantly stream it to their TVs in up to full 1080p HD and surround sound from the comfort of their living room. And now, for customers that are not satisfied with hundreds of streaming channels but want the worldwide web on the big screen, the NeoTV Pro enables consumers to wirelessly display virtually any type of content from an Intel WiDi laptop to a TV, including sport broadcasts that are only online, movies, music, photos and any Internet site. 

NETGEAR NeoTV Pro easily connects to the Internet via built-in high-speed 300 Mbps WiFi, which can deliver smooth streaming at 1080p HD video resolution, or wired through an Ethernet cable. Navigation is simple with the NeoTV Streaming Player remote control app, which turns an Apple® iPhone®, iPad®, iPod® Touch or Android® smartphone or tablet into a high-end touch screen remote control. Available free from Apple's App Store and Google® Play, the remote control app makes navigating movies, TV shows, songs and videos on NeoTV Pro simple and intuitive. For those without a smartphone, the NeoTV Pro Streaming Player comes with a regular remote control. 

NETGEAR also announced the addition of four new streaming channels available on all NeoTV streaming players starting in June. One of the new channels, SpiritClips, provides NeoTV users with a library of wholesome and engaging Hallmark Hall of Fame® feature films, available on-demand.
