Roku today announced the Streaming Stick, a wireless dongle that plugs directly into a TV set's HDMI input and requires no external power of its own. The stick features all the usual services and streams accessible using one of Roku's other Smart TV boxes, and works with universal remotes. Unfortunately, it's not enough to simply have a HDMI port; it must support MHL, a fairly recent standard. Press release (PDF) [Roku]
