I placed my order and was told November 25th, canceled to re-order with a 2nd unit and now it's Nov 26th. Then immediately after my friend ordered and got Dec 1.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I give them credit for listing the omission of HBO Go. I'm sure it's one of the most popular apps, and their Prime video service is very visibly associated with HBO, so might as well put it out there and save a million calls to CS.

The power thing is kind of annoying because power outlets aren't always within range of the HDMI port. I guess that's the drawback to being "powerful."

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I ordered 2 and it says delivery date is Dec. 16th.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I picked one up. Nothing can replace the Roku 3, but this will work great for a bedroom device. No Vudu, HBOgo and Warner Archive is a bummer but hopefully they get added.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

That's exactly why I think they listed it, too.

Do people think I should cancel my order of one so I can make a new order of two or will I end up out of luck completely?

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I think you'll be fine, but looking at it, it may not ship until Xmas.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

The real question is will it have a Starz Play app?

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Mine arrives Dec 3rd.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Just contact customer service and let them adjudt your order.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Just ordered one. At least I'll have it by Christmas. Delivery date of 12/24. ;)

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

They don't charge until it ships, correct?

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

You are correct, sir.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I looked at the list of apps and I didn't see Starz Play listed.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Ordered one yesterday and immediately after cancel my membership which ends tomorrow.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Starz Play is available for the Kindle Fire so it should be available for the Kindle Fire stick. Same with the WWE app, which isn't listed but is available for the Kindle Fire.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Gave it a shot. I have been on the fence about purchasing a Roku for a while now, but always hesitate to pull the trigger. For $20, it's pretty much a no brainer. Estimated delivery date for me is January 5th.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I went ahead and ordered one, with an expected delivery date of Dec 24.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

in for $20, add it to my roku and apple tv...

man these things are crazy cheap

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Every hotel I've been to recently has blocked off the TV USB ports to block people using these sort of devices.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

All of them come with all adapters I thought?

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I just stayed at a couple Comfort Inn and Holiday Inn Express last month, and didn't notice that on any of the TVs. But it doesn't matter with this device since it's not USB-powered.

I did run into a different problem though. In one hotel room the TV was positioned so that you couldn't get behind to access the main HDMI port. You could plug into the secondary HDMI port on the side of the TV. But they used a custom remote that didn't have a way to change Inputs. Luckily I had a Samsung Galaxy Tab with an IR Blaster. I downloaded a Universal Remote app and used that to change the inputs.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I've had that happen too. I didn't think of your universal remote idea... that was brilliant.

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

I always take my iphone->HDMI adapter to hook my phone to the hotel tv for netflix. Almost all the time the "input" button on the remote doesnt work but the one on the tv (or by going through the menus) works

Re: Amazon Fire TV Stick
 

Both of mine shipped yesterday and will be here tomorrow. Huzzah, they weren't supposed to ship until next Monday.

Hands-on: Amazon’s Fire TV Stick is a powerful little streaming device
