Google - Chromecast - Black
Google Chromecast: Easily stream your favorite apps and media to your TV via Wi-Fi with Chromecast. Use the included USB cable to plug the Chromecast into your TV, and control streaming content using your compatible smartphone, tablet or computer.
Great tool for streaming but could use a bit more

What's great about it: Easy to set up, no problems
What's not so great: Cannot currently do screen mirroring to tablets
Chromecast is a great and very inexpensive tool for streaming things from a computer or tablet to your TV. It takes no time at all to setup and many aps and programs are compatible with it. When our Vizio TV starts goofing up with Netlflix or HULU we just connect the Chromecast and stream from a tablet. Regularly we have the Chromecast plugged into the back of our receiver so we can stream Pandora to it from our phones.
My only complaint with it is you cannot screen mirror the browser on tablets (at least not yet) and the screen mirroring from Chrome on a computer was a little glitchy.
I definitely recommend picking one up because they are only like $35 and it is very portable for traveling and using at hotels.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Amazing screen, Nifty S-pen features
What's not so great: Laggy for the power this tablet has, Only decent battery life
I have been a big Android supporter for several years and have been quite a fan of Samsung products. I have a Galaxy S3 and my wife has an S4. So here goes.
Pros:
Screen - The screen is absolutely beautiful. The colors are crisp, the resolution high, and it can get stunningly bright.
Screen - The screen is absolutely beautiful. The colors are crisp, the resolution high, and it can get stunningly bright.
Features - It has all of the newest Samsung Touch Wiz and Android 4.3 features. The S-Pen is very cool and the things you can do with it are pretty cool. I like how you can now drag pictures and such using Multiwindow over to the Email app to attach.
Cons
Performance - This tablet has some killer stats but for some reason it can be a bit laggy/stuttery when going from screen to screen on the home screen, or pulling up the app drawer, among other things. A tablet this awesome should not have such stutters. I am hopeful that once the people at XDA figure out how to root it without voiding the warranty counter that I can put a custom rom which will make it move much quicker.
Features - The original Note 10.1 edition had what was called Cascade View, where you could open several windows up at once as well as doing the side by side view like the multiwindow functionality the Note 10.1 2014 edition has. The 2014 edition has lost this functionality unfortunately. You do have the ability to use the Pen Window, which is somewhat similar but is very limited (outside of rooting the device) in the apps it can open. In the old edition you could open almost all apps in fully resizable windows.
So in conclusion, the tablet has a lot of functionality and a great screen but the lagginess that is sometimes encountered can be irritating to someone that likes lightning fast. The lag isnt the worst thing on the planet but for someone techy that likes things snappy (and understands they SHOULD be snappy with the hardware on this device) it can be bothersome. A more average person probably would not notice.
This product is... responsive touch screen, Good sound quality, easy to set up, Perfect for Business, Variety of apps available, Sharp graphics, Easy to navigate, Great screen size, Comfortable to hold
About me... Technology guru, Social media enthusiast, Business Professional

Mouse connection
The BB rep sold me a Samsung adapter so i can use a mouse. Well the adapter connects at the bottom, this makes me have to take the Belkin BT Keyboard off since the connector is too big, then the tablet falls back making it useless. Anyone have any suggestions on connecting a Mouse?
Look around for a bluetooth mouse. This would be way more functional than a corded mouse or one with a wireless adapter.
