I've been tempted to upgrade, but I just know I won't use it enough to justify.

Went ahead and upgraded my PS+ ($29 for ~6.5 months after the holiday discount) and I have two non-scientific observations.

1. Cloud streaming has less lag than local PS remote play
2. Cloud streaming seems to use more power (30 minutes of remote play used 10%, 30 minutes of cloud streaming used 20%)

Anyway, it is a better cloud streaming device than remote player. If they add more streaming games to the service maybe it would be a decent entry point for new users who don't want to spend so much on a console.

OT, I also want to try this on my PC since apparently there are a few games that only show up on the PC version.
