    I'm really enjoying this fine piece of tech. I can put on a list of music on a party and anyone can add his own music to it later.

    I use this on my iPad, my PC, my Android device - Chromecast is simplistic in design and solves that age-old question, how do I get from point A to point B. Got Plex? No problem, with a few taps/clicks, you're media is streaming to your favorite HDTV without the typical hassle when wanting to stream onto devices such as a PS3 or XBOX. Love it!

    Literally the only suggestion that I have for the people over at Google is that you should be able to cast a tablet screen, or a tab from the mobile version of Chrome. Everything else is perfect! I use it all the time with Netflix, Hulu, and Youtube and have had absolutely no issues. This is probably one of the best technology purchases I've ever made.

    I have purchased 2 Chromecasts and have been extremely happy. They are easy to set up and work well with my smartphone, tablet, and computer. The apps that can be streamed are currently limited, but still a solid selection of the essentials. Such a small and simple device yet it really makes a difference in media consumption. Incredible value for money!

    Just about everything works on the Chromecast. The best part for us is that it casts hulu without a hulu plus membership. It's also nice to not have a remote to lose, all you do is cast what you have on your laptop (from Chrome browser),phone, or tablet to the TV. Great for Netflix too and a whole lot of other apps that we haven't got to yet.

    When I first got it home I wanted to set it up immediately! It's helps you step by step to set it up - on any device that you are going to link. I love how I can move it from tv to tv and not have to do any new linking or setting up. I havent used it wirelessly so I do not know how the charging time is I have not found anything negative yet either.

    This works as advertised and works great. The instructions were not very explanatory, but I got it up and running in about 30 minutes. It will not work from apps in windows 8, but you must run it from the google chrome browser and the chromecast add in module. But if you want to watch you-tube, or Netflix or search the web on your tv, it works well.
