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.

^ Good to know! Thanks for the heads up! This is a huge part of why I'm excited for this phone.

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.

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.

Then I would Email them and tell them to fix that ish. That is misleading.

How was it so inexpensive for you? The sale I see says it's $94.99, which is only a $5 discount.

Edit: There's a sale going on for 30% off all accessories. Time to do my shopping! Enter code NWS16 at checkout. It lasts until the 16th.

so for this to work it sounds like your tv not only needs an hdmi port but that it must be able to connect to wifi as well? I was about to purchase this and I have wifi at home but my tv does not have internet connection built in...

The Media Link box needs to be on WiFi, not the tv.

It'll work even if you don't have wifi at home, through wifi direct
