Can I stream my desktop to the TV? Doesn't seem like it.

  Right, which makes it seem odd that they're comparing it to the Chromecast. More of a competitor to the Roku stick.

    I suspect that the chromecast has sold at least an order of magnitude more devices than roku has.

  Engadget suggests it has Miracast but I've not seen that mentioned anywhere else. "Naturally, you can also mirror your smartphone and tablet display, both if you're rocking a Fire phone or tablet or a Miracast-equipped device, and you can use app-based voice search with the hardware." http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/27/amazon-fire-tv-stick/ http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/27/amazon-fire-tv-stick/

    Interesting. A quick google suggests Windows 8 supports Miracast, so maybe it's possible. It's certainly not a feature they are touting though.
