Roku Streaming Stick: Get a hub of entertainment in one convenient, compact device. Access more than 2,000 channels and cast from Netflix, YouTube and personal media directly from your smartphone or tablet to your TV.
What's great about it: Practically the only great thing about it is YouTube
What's not so great: Only real good thing is YouTube
The device is small and it starts pretty quick. The YouTube app is whats best (for my personal experience). Advantage from Chrome is after you put a video from your PC or mobile device you can continue with the control.
The bad part is that the only really free thing in there is YouTube. There is no real projection of your mobile devices or PC to the TV. The closest thing is Plex, is an app that you can use to stream your videos from PC to TV. But only videos and is about US$5.00 a moth. Plus you have to install the Server side on your PC to keep it running.
Your better buying a tiny or small PC with wireless keyboard and connecting it with HDMI cable (or VGA if no HDMI). You will be able to do everything.
