Since I've never met an electronic gadget that I didn't like, I just
had to run out and buy one of these as soon as I heard about it. The Fire Stick basically turns an ordinary (dumb) TV into an internet connected (smart) TV, and it costs less than $40 depending on where you buy it. You need a high speed wifi connection for it to work properly, and an open HDMI port on your TV. It installs and self configures in seconds, needing only your wifi sysID/password to get it working. After that you have full access to all of your favorite movies, music, YouTube videos, etc. It comes with a fairly slick remote control that accepts voice commands. No financial interest in any of this - just a happy user. In my case I already had a fairly nice Samsung smart TV but apparently Samsung and Amazon are dueling with each other, and the Amazon Music app no longer works on any Samsung devices. The Fire Stick device has fixed all that and enabled a few other nifty features. |
