Check the receipt, I just read that somewhere
I couldn't disagree more. None of the things you mentioned are small enough to fit in a pocket, work without a remote of some kind (I always have my phone on or near me, can't say the same about remotes). I have an Apple TV and it's getting put up for sale right after I hook my Chromecast in.
I do see one good use for this... and that would be plugging it into a hotel room TV to watch movies without having to pay a fortune for their pay per view service.
Something tells me that the hotels will catch onto this quickly, though, and start disabling the free HDMI ports on their TV's
Nothing on the Amazon receipt.

This says it should have been emailed to me when I purchased it. How would Google know though that I purchased it from Amazon. I hope this wasn't just for Google Play orders only.

Ok I have one so if anyone wants me to try something let me know
Give me a site you want me to try. I went to twit.tv and played a video. I have also dragged and droopped video files and mp3s into the browser tab and they play. It wasnt smooth but the youtube app was smooth. It warned me my local network was probably causing issues
