Woo! Can't wait for you guys to get your hands on it. It was fun beta testing it for the past month. Message from Hugo Barra to the beta group

Went by my local Walmart, they still have six. Still ring up as "sale not allowed."

I'll swing by the local walmart in the morning since i have to wake up early to drive the wife to the airport anyways. My bet is if the POS system gets updated it will be a midnight (not sure which timezone)

Is this Worth upgrading from a nexus player or should I wait? I don't have a 4k, but spec wise?

Anyone have any luck today?

Anyone else notice they show the updated SlingTV UI on their page? Maybe the AndoidTV app will finally be updated soon.

So the draw of this device is that it's available at walmart? This seems alot like the second gen amazon fire tv box except it doesn't have an ethernet port, micro sd card slot, and cant play prime movies. I would wait for the fire tv box to go on sale again.

Probably coulda made a link post instead of a text post for this.
