They've been sold out less then a week after they were placed on the market. I plan on buying/reserving one after I move at the end of Sept. Hopefully Google will get its act together and make a much larger batch next time.
Do you know anyone who bought this dongle when it was briefly on sale? $35 plus it came with 6 months Netflix for free. Basically it paid for itself.
Thinking about abandoning cable. Anybody have a report on this dongle?
