All XBMCFlicks does is launch a browser to then play Netflix. While technically possible to install silverlight and a browser on the ATV1, I hear there is lots of stuttering and the experience isn't very good.
Your best bet is to hold out for a linux Netflix client (which Netflix says is in the works) then install a linux-based OS (like
Crystalbuntu (wiki)) on the ATV1, along with a
Broadcom Crystal HD (wiki) card to handle video decoding.

If I install XBMC on my PC, and my Apple TV 1 has XBMC as well, and I successfully install the XBMC Flicks add-on to the PC, can I then "share" that to the Apple TV 1?
