[News] Google Chromecast Officially Arrives In New Zealand!
Google’s relatively cheap HDMI dongle for your TV is now officially available in New Zealand!
The Google Chromecast is a small device that can tuck itself away behind your TV and produce masses of entertainment for you and the family. Some of the features include casting a Google Chrome tab from your PC to your TV; mirroring your [compatible] smartphone to your TV; plus many more features!
Chromecast in New Zealand supports YouTube, Google Play Music and Google Play Movies as well as apps from local services e.g Pandora and Quickflix.
We can expect to see many companies to start creating apps for the Chromecast here in New Zealand, with the open software development kit (SDK) made available for developers by Google.
There is a huge potential for many TV streaming services in New Zealand e.g LightBox, who have the potential for a Chromecast app to be developed.
You can pick up a Chromecast from JB Hi-Fi, Dick Smith, The Warehouse or Noel Leeming.
