Archos TV Connect

Thoughts on Archos TV Connect?

I have been looking at a lot of boxes with Ethernet connection (Pivos, Minix, G-Box Midnight etc) and I really think this is looking like a winner. Plus it has a built in camera and will sit nicely on the TV

Running XBMC looks pretty capable.http://youtu.be/Qopb4T56SoI

full of features!http://www.archos.com/products/home/archos_tv_connect/index.html?country=ie&lang=en

Looks like it will be the first mainstream name to get one of these things to market and they should be easily available here in Ireland (Komplette, Dabs etc sell Archos stuff) and we wont have to jump through hoops to get stuff from dodgy sellers in China.

I dont think games would be much good on it with that remote but seems like a great TV smartifier!

Never ended up getting it but it's still on my list of possible purchases. Funds didn't allow me to get any android box yet but hopefully will soon
