I have an apple TV but after buying some of these formy family I decided to give it a shot myself.

Setting it up is really easy. It has step by step instructions on the provided app. Using it is a no brainer. You choose an app in your phone, click on an icon to stream to comcast (you don't use airplay for this one) and that's it.

Although, make sure you understand how this device works. It doesn't actually stream the image from your phone to your tv. What your phone does is just send instructions to the chromecast so it can actually get he stream from the provider, and it serves as the remote control. Given this information, it's hard to use a VPN set up in your phone and then transfer the video to the chromecast. It won't work unless your chromecast is connected to the vpn too. What you can probably do is get one of those DNS services to unlock other providers that aren't available in your country.

I would recommend this to a friend!

This screen protector is really easy to apply. The package provides clear instructions so it's a no brainer. My only complaint is that before they use to make invisible shield a little bit thicker, and that provided better protection. Now it's a little bit thin and that could lead to less protection. Other than I think it's a very good product.

What's great about it: Lots of pockets, great strong build.

What's not so great: Nothing bad

I have to take my laptop everyday to work, with all my stuff like hard drives, mouse, notebooks. This backpack will endure good loads, and the quality can be felt when you just touch it. It feels professional and durable.

Does it work with SlingBox.

This works with a smartphone or tablet to stream netflix, hulu, crunchyroll, youtube, espn, etc. unless slingbox has an option to stream its apps (which I doubt) it works by itself, you don't need a slingbox

Will it work with a SmartBoard?

I am a teacher and would like to use it to project my iPad to my Smart Board. Is this possible?

It might be possible in the future but it's currently not supported. You can only stream your CHROME browser tabs. But nothing else. You might want to get an apple tv for that.

Will it work with Windows XP

Will it work with Windows XP? I have a wireless modem/router I was given by at&t for fiber optics but was told by the service tech that that model is known for losing it's wireless signal, so my second question is since my pc is close to the tv , can I run a cable instead of wireless?

This stick is not an USB stick. It has an HDMI plug which goes into your TV. It must connect to a wireless network to receive the streams.
