The Nexus Player is also available from TigerDirect. The official Nexus Twitter account also mentions Wal-Mart and Fry's Electronics, though it isn't available from their online sites, so it may only be on sale in brick-and-mortar stores. Staples' online store is also mentioned, but as of noon Monday, the Nexus Player isn't listed. Amazon now has an official listing from Asus available at the standard $99 price with free Prime shipping.
Google's first retail Android TV device, the Nexus Player, hasn't been met with the same kind of demand as last year's new Nexus phone or tablet, or even its little brother the Chromecast.

If Google Play movies and HBO Go access via Xfinity (Comcast) weren't just added to the newer Rokus, I probably would have snagged one of these. Maybe when (if) my original Roku XD dies, I'll try one out.

Would have definitely bought one a year so when we got our Roku. The Chromecast works well enough but you need a device to use it. My kids are able to use the Roku easily instead of needing a phone or tablet to use the chromecast. I would rather have this but I'm not gonna replace my Roku which is a great device.

Even more love since Chromecast receiver became a separate app and got updated and now actually works. Have got 0 problems with it now, using it 50% with apps/games and 50% to Kodi for my own movies & also live tv.
