LAN port for Panasonic Blu Ray - VIERA Connect services?

Can someone confirm that the 'Smart' Panasonic Blu Ray players like the DMP-BDT120 can access the Viera Connect services like iPlayer and Netfix using the LAN port (hard wired to the router) and not just using a WiFi dongle. It looks like thats the case, but I don't want to get it (its a gift) and set it up Christmas day and find we can't get online without the dongle.

From the specs

LAN (Ethernet) Terminal yes (for DLNA, BD-Live™, VIERA Connect and Firmware Update)

If you think about it for a second, what would be the point of an ethernet port if it could only use WiFi to connect to your network?:)
