You should get it at the shipping speed they had posted when you purchased it. I got mine in about 4 days. I haven't had a chance to play with it more than connecting it to my wifi and streaming a couple YouTube videos from my laptop. It seems well integrated with the Chrome browser but since I have an iPhone its not at the top of my priorities to play with it since I have 5 or 6 different Netflix connected devices already. I'm hoping support for it will grow quickly.

I had a 90 degree HDMI adapter so I thought I would hide the chromecast behind my TV, but the wifi connection was so bad I had to use the HDMI extension it came with to get enough signal to make it through an HD YouTube video on full screen without dropping the connection. Since the USB power sticks out from the opposite end from the HDMI, you end up needing about 6" of space to hide the thing, so a side input on your TV is probably out depending on the model. There was also a substantial amount of heat for it only being on for 15 minutes, but I have a plasma that hangs about 1/2" from the wall, so that probably doesn't help. If you're sticking it in the back of a receiver or a switcher I guess you wouldn't have to worry about the heat or signal loss too much, but as bad as the wifi was behind my TV, I wonder if a metal rack would be enough to cause problems. --- In Crestron@..., "doug_h_encinitas" <dghardy@...> wrote:
