Although, isn’t this just a rebranding and evolution of the Chromecast? Seems like the same experience and platform, but with Ethernet, thread / matter, more storage, faster compute, etc.

Yeah but $30 USD vs $100 USD targets completely different customers and use cases.

I was willing to spend $30 per TV. But not $100.

Agreed. Just saying I that it’s basically the same platform and experience. They’ve just decided to only sell beefier / more expensive versions of the product.
