So I have been wanting a HDMI dongle or similar solution and this sounds promising. I was hoping Chromecast would have delivered something closer to this but alas it focused too much on entertainment content (and tab casting barely works for me).

I know it is a WIP, but this would have been much more attractive/awesome if they managed to power without separate USB and add wifi AC support. That would have made it a serious competitor even if at a higher price point.




Hi fatbat,

Infact you can power it from an HDMI 1.4 + MHL port if your tv supports it!

It also comes with dual wifi cards.


Awesome! Did not know about MHL. Looks like that is used by the Roku Streaming Stick too. I think you should definitely mention that in the campaign as well. Going to keep an eye on this and the stretch goals. Thank you!
