Amazon Fire TV Stick, An HDMI Dongle That Streams Video, Music, and Games to a Television

Amazon has unveiled the Fire TV Stick, an HDMI dongle that connects to the back of an HDTV, allowing users to stream video, music, and games to their set. Like the Fire TV set-top box, the Google Chromecast-like Fire TV Stick ships with a devoted remote and can stream content from a slew of sources, including Netflix, Hulu Plus, Pandora, Showtime Anytime, and, of course, Amazon Instant Video.
