Do you think MS is on the way to adopting the Apple model as much as it can? I don't see this as an attempt to take over a hardware market as much as setting a benchmark for other HW manufacturers that are building for W10.

You can see FR on the screen.
I blame all my typos on him.

The tv needs an app, too, I think. The feed goes to MS’s server, then to the tv.

The tv needs an app, too, I think. The feed goes to MSs server, then to the tv. That sounds very unfortunate -- it means the video stream has to make two transits over your ISP connection (out and back). I foresee both bandwidth (going out) and total-GB limitations and/or charges. Something doesn't sound right about that...

It doesn’t have widi, but it can usually see projectors and TV’s on your home network. (it’s very sketchy though as the Marvell wireless adapter is a piece...)

You can use Workplace Join in Server 2012 R2 to allow user’s non-domain joined devices to participate in the domain in so far as security (allows multifactor authentication) and be registered as devices in the domain. While you still couldn’t apply GPOs to such devices, you can allow access to domain resources with the ability to selectively get to corp. data and wipe it if lost or stolen. This applies to iPhones and iPads as well as non-domain joined Microsoft platforms.
I think this is a good move because just saying “No, you can’t use that phone to access corp. data.” to a VP or big boss is political suicide. Of course you’re still in trouble if data gets compromised, but this allows you to control it while allowing workers to use their consumer devices without making them part of IT.

That's excellent news and advice, thank you! I will be making use of your information very soon, I wager. As you say, we would all like to avoid political suicide. :)

Well, if both devices are on WiFi, especially FiOS, that’s not a problem. And the tv most likely would be on LAN.
