Chromecast is officially for sale in the UK and it looks like Amazon are shipping to AU (unlike the US and CA Amazon stores).

It is ~$65 shipped which is a little steep but still cheaper/similar to eBay sales. If you need more than one or have some friends the price can come down. IE I just ordered four for $51 a piece.

Fishpond have it at $49 but reviews paint them in a terrible light (people ordering in November and receiving it in February). At least with Amazon you know you'll get it before the end of May.

Be aware there are rumours of an AU release of the Chromecast this month, although that may or may not happen. Even if it does it will likely be around the $50 price point anyway.

    Do not hit this, it is expected that google will officially offer this to Australia any day now, and at recent price drop of $30US I would think it would be priced here $40-$45 with delivery.

      Google is aiming for a 7 May Australian release.

      7 May is only 358 days away… :-P

        …and it might be the next version by then, so wait & maybe get more for less, eventually. ;-)

    • IVI on 15/05/2014 - 00:56

      so, when it is released in AU, don't you think there'll be some offered at promotional prices?

      we do.

    Approx $53.39 here and I'm sure it can be found for cheaper.

    What Mike said is true. I have a friend that went to Google's developer's conference a month ago discussing about app development on Chromecast in Sydney. Expect it to release anytime now.

    I have apple tv and use my apple tv to airplay to it,what will this do or offer

      Nothing if you have apple tv. It is a cheap limited functionality PC to TV streamer.

        Everything seems cheap compared to Apple

    don't get it if it's over $45
    the excitement will short live anyway, as not many compatible apks from your phone to take advantage of it anyway.

    Great way to get plex to your tv, but can be got cheaper. I got mine from fishpond, took a month.

    • xuqi on 14/05/2014 - 23:06

      Geez, you mean they actually honoured your order?

    • braddsey on 15/05/2014 - 04:56

      If you have a samsung internet tv, you can get the plex app for samsung - it's what I use and it's perfect.

    So many cheaper deals out. Plus the incoming Aussie release. Really wouldn't recommend this right now.

    I found it a bit useless, apart from steaming youtube from my phone

    • dcep on 14/05/2014 - 22:46

      i thought it's useful that you can output your desktop/laptop display wirelessly on TV by using Chrome browser to cast entire screen.

      • soupiejr on 15/05/2014 - 00:39

        You can stream popcorn time via your Chrome browser, then push that to the Chromecast. :)

      Avia is a good video player to cast your videos from phone to TV via Chromecast

    Some interesting apps but given the above I think I'll wait.

  • darpy01 on 15/05/2014 - 00:13

    It's $30US on the American store, just use a shipping service, still a hell of a lot cheaper than $65
