mykeyb Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) Well the stream I was watching was buffering so badly I gave up, waiting for the video on YouTube to go live....... Edited June 25, 2014 by mykeyb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted June 25, 2014 Administrator Share Posted June 25, 2014 I could stream on some devices but not others. Very odd. I like the new UI; very impressive. I like the AndroidWear and AndroidAuto stuff. Automatic remote running of apps - that has immense potential and it sounds like it's all built with APIs available up front. That's as much as I watched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Developer preview of android 5 for nexus 5 tomorrow. Looks like I'll be flashing away! http://developer.android.com/preview/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykeyb Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 Soooo tempted to try that tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykeyb Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 Watched the keynote video of youtube eventually. Funny that Google is making Android TV pretty much what the Chinese have been doing with Android on a stick devices. Not sure about the new UI with the playstation style buttons but using it will prove if it is an improvement or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I've not caught much of this, am I right in thinking the new UI is similar in style to the latest updates of Google Now and Google Plus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykeyb Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 In a nutshell yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenm Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 For anyone wondering what that's about: They were given away at IO but you can make your own: https://developers.google.com/cardboard/ or of course buy all the bits together as I've done.
