"Google abruptly ends 'limited' Netflix promotion for Chromecast buyers" I'm glad I copped early

I'm sorry man. I'm looking at the screen right now. It's passable for what I paid for it on my home wifi. When I streamed it through my phone hotspot, it looked like straight buttcheeks. It's not bad but don't expect none of the clarity you saw in the google demo.

Welp, I guess I'll be passing on this then. Thanks anyway. When I stream fights/etc and the quality is already shytty and cuts off at the main event
I want to at least stuggle watch in 360p, downgrading to 240p isn't on my bucket list na mean

Got mine today from Amazon and it works perfectly. No way is anyone who copped early losing when they throw in three months of Netflix.

I'm one of the few ppl in Dallas with one.

Girl at Best Buy said they only got in like 8(she grabbed 1 herself ) and 4 ppl called about them just right before I walked in to pick mine up.

I got the last one

And yes, I'm gloating b/c I usually come out on the short end for popular stuff like this.

Google's living room plans reportedly included a Hangout-ready set-top box

As if the Google TV and Chromecast platforms (which are coexisting, if you hadn't heard) weren't enough, the Wall Street Journal reports there may be more living room focused projects brewing in Mountain View. According to sources, former Android head Andy Rubin demonstrated a Roku-style set-top box for partners at CES that had Hangouts as its main feature, with a video camera and motion sensor built-in for videoconferencing -- something Logitech tried once with its ill-fated Revue TV Cam, shown above. The report claims the box, capable of running Android apps, games and services like Netflix or Pandora, was scheduled to launch at I/O, but it's unknown whether or not it's still in development. Recent WSJ rumors have suggested Google is looking into IPTV and its own Android game system, so even as one mystery is revealed others pop up to take its place.
