At least until they kill the product in 18 months
Well they're discontinuing the OG Chromecast and Chromecast w/ Google TV for this. So you're probably right.

Never invest too heavily in Google anything.
Although, isn’t this just a rebranding and evolution of the Chromecast? Seems like the same experience and platform, but with Ethernet, thread / matter, more storage, faster compute, etc.
Yeah but $30 USD vs $100 USD targets completely different customers and use cases.
I was willing to spend $30 per TV. But not $100.
Agreed. Just saying I that it’s basically the same platform and experience. They’ve just decided to only sell beefier / more expensive versions of the product.
