I love both of my next-gen consoles (wii and 360) for different reasons.
Both will stream netflix to my t.v. with ease, although I prefer the interface of the wii version.
Xbox has fun hardcore games with great graphics, and has an unrivaled online play, especially for first persion shooters and war games.
Wii is fun for casual gaming and gimmick gaming, assuming you wade through the crap titles (which there are plenty of). You can't beat a good party game with friends while having beers. Plus, they have the uuber-fun nintendo library of games (zelda, mario, metroid, etc
Nothing has ever really wowed me enough to make the jump and buy a PS3. That's not a knock to the system, but it's a third console that I don't need nor want. I already have a bluray player.
I say get an xbox. I think that'll probably get you the most bang for your buck, as they have casual and hardcore games, alike, and wii, while I love it to death and in many ways more than my xbox, just cannot keep up with xbox's online experience. That's the big failure on the wii's part.
