just saw this on Amazon's homepage
Amazon's chromecast competitor. $39 but $19 for Prime members, releases November 19th
LINK
I preordered one but don't need it. It'll make a nice Christmas gift for somebody I suppose.
eta: 11/23
some deals on FireTV for those who missed the $19 price:
$25 at Best Buy
$24 at Staples

I've been on the fence regarding something like this because I use an Xbox for my streaming...Its hard to pass up for 20$ though..
ETA: This item will be released on November 19th. Orders placed today are expected to ship on or after the release date.

Me too. This addresses my primary reservation of the Chromecast not having a remote. This will be useful on secondary TVs that currently can't stream.

I may get it for the watch espn on it. For some reason my PS3 or other blu ray player doesn't have that app.

i wish the idiots in charge of the HDMI spec would include powering low-draw devices at some point so we could get away from nonsense like this.

Isn't this still a limitation of the chomecast and Roku stick?

If it can do that with Google music then I'm ordering. That's the only reason I'm not ordering one right now

There appears to be a limit of two per customer. Make sure you aren't paying full freight on your other 8.

Ordered for my outside tv

What is this and how does it work? I don't know what Chromcast is either. If I have netflix, can I just plug this stick into any TV that has an HDMI port and be able to access my netflix?

Yes. It's a USB Flash Drive sized version of the Amazon Fire TV, which is like a Roku or Apple TV so you can stream internet tv/movies to any TV with an HDMI port.

Is there a monthly fee for this stick to use it, or just $19.99 and thats it?

I don't really need this but it's a great price, and from Amazon, so I'm sold.
