Default HTC Media Link

Am I the only one that is really excited about this.

Does anyone have any experience with the Media Link yet?

I saw one video that speaks of an opportunity to use the tv as the screen and the phone as a controller. How sweet would that be?

It would be better if you didn't need the wireless b/g/n router between your phone and this device. If they both can communicate with the router, why can't the phone communicate to the device directly?

Just received the Media Link HD I ordered from AT&T for my E4GLTE. I was surprised that HTC includes an AC adapter and HDMI cable in the box! Looks like it works - now just waiting for my phone to get here so I can try it out.

From what I can tell in the manual, if there's no wireless router available, it uses a WiFi direct signal. I plugged it in, and on the startup screen it showed a private IP address that wasn't from my home router.

I like the idea of it and now that I know it works as such it just got better. Unfortuneatly, I would always have the phone plugged in to watch a movie or play a game on the tv. I assume the media link streaming a 1080p movie would drain your battery out before the movie ends.

Just as an update, Acording to the HTC Website the Media Link is not compat w/ the EVO LTE.

Select the phone and it will tell you

They just don't have it listed because the phone hasn't released yet. The User guide has sections about setting up the Media Link.
