You won't be able to use VPN for your devices to access Netflix without going through some complicated measures that will drastically slow down the speed of your internet connection. The VPN method should only be used for viewing on your computer.

For devices, like xbox (I am not familiar with AppleTV or whatever Ooma is) definitely go with unblock-us.

edit: With Xbox Live's new dashboard update, it's even easier to use Netflix on there if you already have a US-based Xbove Live gamertag. Just log in with your US account, go to the apps tab, download the Netflix app, and then switch back to your regular gamertag (if you have two like I do. If not, even easier for you). You no longer have to switch between two tags to get Netflix to show up; the Netflix app will be there under every gamertag on your Xbox now

Thanks, bizort.

I've got an Apple-centric set up, with an AirPort Extreme router. It looks as though unblock-us has instructions for changing settings in this so all connected devices can access US-based services, am I right? We'll primarily be using the Xbox as our main streaming device. (with a little Apple TV and Roku, on occasion.)

BTW - Ooma is a VOIP provider. I'm planning on bringing our Ooma box with so relatives can reach us by making local (651 area code) calls.
