Just watched the Google breakfast launch (http://www.youtube.com/google) and was suitably impressed with the Chromecast device (http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/07/g...o-your-tv/) and it looks like it's slated for distribution in the next week and at the price, suspect it will be a market winner.
Obvious question is will XBMC fit into this device as neatly and where does that leave Yatse or the official XBMC remote and do we still need software overlays at all?

FTA: Now that Google has let its $35 Chromecast streaming HDMI dongle out of the bag at its breakfast event, it's gonna need developers to chip in some apps for it. To help boost that, it's launched the Googel Cast SDK to help those folks bring content from mobile and the web to TVs. By using the kit, developers won't need to build new applications for the big screen from scratch, they'll just need to make a few tweaks to their existing mobile apps.
