Wherever whores go.....
Look here little nikka, I just upgraded my tv with this and i personally have no intentions on using this for righteous purposes. It works with Idevices too so calm your nerves and comb your beard

Im investing now and when the floodgates open I'll show you the way :demonic:
I'm not the one who bought a device and didn't read the reviews for it.

They clearly said on tech sites that the chrome mirror wasn't working.

So basically :umad:

Bout to eat good off this 3 months of Netflix... I just needed a Netflix device so I won't have to use my PS3 and this fit the bill... Hope this shyt works well for that...

If the streaming from chrome is fixed soon, this will be dope for those days where I need to stream stuff to the TV and use my laptop at the same time...

I Dont Need One But Im Interested In It If The Streaming From Chrome Is Flawless, Especially If It Works With HULU And It Gets Hack To Do XBMC

My TV Already Does All The Things This Thing Offers

I just got home with mine. It's nice addition to home theater. Video quality isn't really all that. Only 3 apps for it as far it so far (netflix, youtube, google movies.... so I guess only 2) easy to set u. Works quicker than I thought it would.

Things I noticed...

You can start a video on your tablet and turn the tablet off and it will still be playing:ehh:.

It does charge from the tv usb port so that's confirmed.

It comes with an hdmi extension dongle.

If they ever get plex on there. The game is over.

I felt like a boss at Bestbuy just now. Dudes went from :dwillhuh: what's a chromecast. We got chromebooks to :ohhh: when i explained it and hooked it up to the tv to:krs:all that for $35!


Im going to keep it.

Edit: Google Play Music works.... I roll with Spotify though...... I'm about to try my laptop hooked up to the chromecast

Already a Netflix subscriber, so I redeemed the code today and got 3 months free. So I essentially "saved" $24 bucks I was going to pay anyway, thus the device actually cost me around 12 bucks.

Not bad. Once the Chrome streaming is optimized I'm going to feast on it.
