Of course there legal. Some of the things you do with them though could be classed as illegal.
They are basically an android phone you connect to your TV and control with the included remote.
They run XBMC and you install add ons to stream and watch movies/shows/live TV/events.

Heres a huge forum on it.

I've been looking at ads for "pre loaded boxes" does this mean TV channels will be on it when I plug it in, they also advertise channels you would normally pay for!! Is this legit?!
