i got it in the mail the other day, and have played around with it a bit. i understand this is in its infancy, and more will come. yet, it seems to me that my similarly priced roku player can far better, and more easily, do whatever the chromecast can.....except of course casting a tab.
so what am i missing?
1. cast a tab
2. cast a local file
3. run a few apps off my phone...netflix and youtube.
i am not a roku fanboy, but i can more easily do #2 and 3 with the roku, plus alot more.
i suppose when a local file from a phone or tablet can be cast that chromecast will be on the right track. wish they hadn't taken away that capability with the first update.
perhaps the folks here can list some of the things they do with it so i may learn? thanks peeps.
