So it's a wireless audio streaming thing? You mean it would save me having to reach all the way over there to physically plug my phone's headphone jack into the amp?
The chromecast has a wire. And requires another power plug. But it's pretty cool nonetheless. I'm tempted to get another while they're cheap but I can't think where I'd use it, the flat isn't big enough.
Already thinking about an arduino with an IR transmitter and wireless receiver that can turn on my HiFi and control the volume, then control that from an RPi which will also send commands to the Chromecast :-B
I actually lost the remote for a while and found that someone had recorded the IR codes so used them to transmit from an RPi that was being a media player :$
I found the remote codes because I was searching for a photo of the remote to send to my mum so she knew what it looked like, and the photo was on the LIRC website with the codes. I wanted to find the remote again so I could record the codes myself :D
Mine arrived today too, but my car also wouldn't start this morning so I think that'll sit on the back burner for a little while.
I've always been tempted by the odroids but the huge community of the RPi always sways it for me. Because I'm using the GPIO quite a lot I trust the software to work more reliably and be updated on the RPi.
