| disolitude said: "No name" and "low quality" can be debatable when all you are doing is providing a wireless HDMI signal transfer and don't insist people use your products and services. Frankly, I really don't understand why you are so eager to start using Google services and workarounds for something they absolutely don't need to be invovled with. |
1) I already use all of Google's services. Have few hundred songs in Google Music, all my pics/videos in G+ (500GB+ of data) and if I were to buy movies (I only rent anymore with RedBox), it would be digitally from Play.
2) What work-arounds? The only 'odd' thing is putting your local URL in for a movie stored on your PC. However, I'm sure in the very near future we'll see media players adding this casting feature (likely even Google themselves). Its already know Pandora and Hulu Plus are finalizing their app changes.
I say no name and low quality because that is what it is. For instance, Best Buy has the rocketfish product ($79). I've owned two different products by them and they both sucked.
There is a reason this thing sold out in minutes and when I called my local Best Buy the person answering the phone knew her stock situation for this brand new thing without even looking it up. In fact I joked that she knew it off top of her head and she laughed as she's been getting calls on it all day. Its a hot item and at $35 (actually $11 if you already have Netflix anyways and count that 3month savings) the real question is, why the hell wouldn't you want this?
