Amazon Fire TV Review

I've owned it for a week today so I thought I'd make a small review.  I'll post some pictures later.

Pros:
Fastest and most legal way to watch TV,Movies online
Quad Core Processor and Dedicated GPU make animations and gameplay buttery smooth
Great Starter App and Game Selection
Debug Mode is Still There!!
Prime Instant Video Collection is growing everyday
Casual and midcore games selection are very engaging

Cons:
Can’t Shop from Amazon (yet)
Lack of Third Party Voice Search
Limited App Selection
Apps Purchased online don’t always make it to the FireTV
Even Less Limited Game Selection
No remote control apps on Android and iOS
Keyboard Layout should be QWERTY and not 1-9 A-Z it makes it really hard to type
Keyboard Carousel should resume at the last letter and not start over at A

Suggestions:

Support True Miracast Receiver Abilities from all Miracast Capable Senders

Tweak Mojito ever to slightly. The app installer uses entirely too many resources in the background and interrupt foreground.

Work on a DLNA App

Install to device from the web

HDMI-CEC. Pressing home on the remote/controller. Power on the tv if it’s off

What’s on tv based on your zip code to spur tv purchases

Questions: Why are you guys using Akamai for CDN services?

I would recommend this product to everyone. The interface and layout are simple enough that my mom could use it.

16 Days With The Hdhomerun Prime

Ive been using the Hdhomerun Prime Cablecard Tuner for the past 16 day. It's only bee working 10 days due to poor activation on Comcast's part. After about 10 calls and 8 tier 2 activations a technician came out and phoned back into the home office and activated in 4 minutes. Why couldn't the other 15 people have done the same thing.

Comcast rant over.

Since then I've been recording multiple shows at one. The fall tv season is about to start and im Ready to record six shows at once :) . I'm having one major problem that I hope is firmware related. From time to time the Hdhomerun encounters packet loss and that means that mythtv cannot connect to the tuner when it's time to record tv and I miss some shows. Granted I have another 3 tuners waiting to be called to active duty it's not good for it to not work 100% as expected.

Mythtv also has a bug in the latest stable release that's not detecting all 3 tuners. I have to add 2 that it automatically discovers then another fake one that I have to correct in the database. If this is corrected I can ditch my cable box hopefully and save $15 a month.
