Yup, if you happen have 2 Android devices (Nexus Q with TV or Chromebook) at home, try out CheapCast then. It is still in beta stage so it might not work on your devices yet. But this application looks promising. I can turn my Galaxy S4 with MHL 2.0 HDTV Adapter into ChromeCast clone. Of course, actual ChromeCast is easier and cheaper than this combo. But this gives me a chance to try out ChromeCast features without the hardware itself, right?
