Tried that. While the ROKU will connect and work through the mobile hotspot, as soon as I turn on screen mirroring, it turns off the hotspot and jumps back on the wifi. That does solve the slow wifi issue, but doesn't allow me to take advantage of T-Mobile Binge on, where hulu and such don't count against fast data. I will check out the HDMI out capability...good idea!

Thanks for the suggestions all. Will keep experimenting with it.
