* Now available in Korea! * And it has been a long wait (for many!).
Small, light, and powerful. Got mine in the pocket since yesterday . . .
What can it do:
* Connect your Laptop (Mac or PC) wireless to any TV or big display (it just needs an HDMI connector)
and display anything that you can load in your Google Chrome browser.
Such as: YouTube videos, Flickr photos, a Google document, you get it.
It will support sound as well!
* Connect (now, this is really special!) you iPhone (or Android) wireless to the TV as well.
So far the YouTube App is supported.
This will not even drain or otherwise use your phone, you could just have it on standby as you watch!
Compared to the AppleTV:
Advantages:
A lot cheaper, and it only needs power from a USB connection (which your TV has!) - it does not need 220/110V cables
Much lighter, take it along on vacation, and turn dead hotel TV's into something useful!
Works just brilliant with a phone/iPad (and functions then also as a remote!)
Disadvantages:
Not so many Apps supported yet (e.g. you cannot display a video that you play with VLC/Apple MediaPlayer), meaning
so far it's a bit tight embedded in the Google environment. That is changing though. Netflix and a few others are supported already.
This little device can be used in a classroom setting as well, allowing anybody to quickly, wireless, connect to a projector
or display, so students (and teacher) can show whatever runs in their Chrome browser.
(Chadwick tip: is available in the new Lotte mart, in the hi-mart center basement, 49000 Won, US price = 35$)
