Roku 1080p Streaming Stick for $58.86

Jan 11, 2013 8:24 PM

Roku Streaming Stick (1080P) $58.86 Sam's Club
Every other site I've been too wants 99.99 for this stick. Sam's is asking 58.86
Cheapest I've ever seen it.
It is very small. Most people with newer TV's and gadgets should be able to use it. It hooks into an MHL port. (Looks almost exactly like an HDMI port)

Well shoot...I just bought the refurbished 2 XS for about the same price (with shipping). I guess the benefit is that the 2 XS has a USB port.

Unless your TV has a MHL port, you cannot use this adapter. There is a Wiki page that shows which TVs are compatible.

Ya, but most TVs have their HDMI port on the back. What about using this with a remote?

@tradergeorge: I wish I could give this a few extra up-votes. I have a feeling there will be a flood of these as open box/refurbs in the near future when many many people don't realize their TV needs to have MHL.

@mleejr: Assuming the device is like USB devices you may not need to be directly in front to use the remote, but if you do there are devices you can use to extend it. Just suck if you have to pay more. Also the product is out of stock.

Good price, but there's about a 99.9% chance that you do NOT have a compatible TV.

@mleejr: MHL (and newer HDMI) standards also include Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), which makes it possible to use your TV's remote control to operate the plugged-in device.

@mleejr: This appears to use the same "gaming" remote as the 2XS. It uses bluetooth, not IR so it can be hidden and work fine. I have a couple of the 2XS units and they are mounted behind my TVs with velcro. (Roku also sells a little mount that does the same thing for more $).

That said, please heed the warnings that VERY FEW TVs actually will work with this device at the moment. And you do lose the USB port but I do recommend adding the PLEX channel if you have a Roku device because it allows you to stream directly from your PC to the Roku across your network.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
