All my music is on their servers now
Now I just need a TV with HDMI...
They're available at B&M Best Buy stores. I just picked one up.
wi-fi b/g/n Wonder why no ac?
can someone confirm does this thing have the ability to stream games?

If your TV has HDMI 1.4 apparently you don't need the power adapter.

Now I just need a new TV
I think 3 months of Netflix free make this a deal. That's $24 worth of netflix, I think. So its an android stick for $11.
With Google name brand recognician looks like they'll probably take over the stick market. And/or set a template for the stick makers to follow. Unfortunately its sounds like Google is going to try to control the flexibility to their benefit. They're big enough now to try to grab the whole thing.
Interesting concept. It might help with certain phones or those people who are tech challenged.A lot of you are misunderstanding this device. It's not for streaming files off your phone, and it's not for streaming files off your NAS. It's so your phone can push URLs of streaming content to it, nothing more.
Now, will it be hacked 6 ways to sunday? Absolutely =) That's why I'm getting it.

For me, its absolutely pointless. I'm not paying $35 for something I can already do with my current phone and th mini hdmi cable that came supplied with it. $35 to make that function wireless is not worth it.
"Netflix free 3 month offer pulled do to overwhelming demand", you think.
I like how you failed to take into account the key words "might" and "or". In case you misread, those two words imply what I stated are two possibilities among many. Many of those suggestions I left out, such as people wanting to use it for the ability to go wireless. The "or" implies that the "tech challenged" phrase has nothing to do with the previous statement in the sentence and is in fact the beginning of a list with only two items.Interesting concept.

I like how wanting to be wireless makes us technically challenged.
Didn't read the whole thread, but it appears it's still available from Google.
Almost got one then I realized I have my laptop right next to my tv and can connect hdmi-hdmi.

You took my statement suggesting two completely distinct situations, combined it with an entirely different and non-related personal opinion about doing the same thing with a cable and my current phone, and jumped to a conclusion about me calling everyone tech challenged using the word "us".
My post was simply to point out the first two usage ideas that came to mind, and in no way implied that everyone using it would be tech challenged. I only implied that tech challenged people could also benefit from something like this device. I then followed it with a completely personal opinion that I don't like its value because I can do something similar already. I'm sure there are a few people who will find it useful, techies and non-techies alike.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromecast
Chromecast is a media streaming adapter produced by Google. The device, a 2-inch (5.1 cm) dongle, plugs into the HDMI port of an HDTV and streams audio/video content over Wi-Fi. Chromecast is powered from a HDMI 1.4+ port, a USB port, or a power adapter, and employs an embedded version of Chrome OS. The user can then play content on their TV from either the Google Chrome web browser on a personal computer or from a supported app on a mobile device. Apps that will be supported for Chromecast's release include YouTube, Netflix, Google Play Music, and Google Play Movies & TV. Additional apps, such as Pandora, will be added in the future. Chromecast will work across several platforms and operating systems, including Android, iOS, Chrome OS, and Google Chrome on Windows and OS X. The device was announced on July 24, 2013 and will retail for US$35.[1] Chromecast is currently only available in the U.S. but will be available in other countries in the future. [2]
I got my dad into Monoprice, when he bought his first HDTV a few years ago. Since then, he has outfit all three of the TVs he has now, with monoprice cables, wall mounts, etc. His eldest TV is limited on HDMI ports, so he bought one of their HDMI switches that comes with a remote to control it. He loves it.DLNA doesn't work half the time. And I have yet to use 1 HDMI switch that doesn't have some kind of a glitch associated with it.

Ah why the fuck not, going to pick one up now that I can get it for $35 again at Amazon and get my free shipping.
Of course we could all do that it's about clicking a button and for 35 bucks I will get one instead of carrying my laptop to tv and plugging it in. For me this is more for my smartphone and tablet than anything else. It's almost a must have for the price. I am grabbing one as soon as it comes back in stock.
I don't really get the point of this.
I'm guessing Amazon Video is not included at launch for the same reason I can't get an Amazon Video streaming app for any of my devices: they're stingy bastards. Then again, if they actually released an Android app, I still wouldn't need this since my Android stick would then work too.
Could someone correct me if I am wrong.
I can connect my phone to Chromecast and just play videos off my phone on TV?
So I could go to my friend's house who has a data cap through Verizon and just use my phone to save them some data through my phone?
