It's not on my Amazon account, and no money has been taken from me. Has my name on the parcel, addressed perfectly etc etc etc. I will let the hare sit a few days before I get too attached to it.

BandMember wrote: » Thanks for the review, have read various reports about the Shield so looking forward to hearing from a first hand user. Hope you enjoy it, it's supposed to be a serious piece of kit! P.S. My comment earlier was in jest - I would never be serious with a comment like that. You had some very good luck, make the most of it! You should probably buy a lotto ticket this week as well though....

A friend has a nvidia shield and it does look very slick but can't justify the money for it. From reading this thread the Mi Box is a good compromise for price vs. functionality. I've no interest in playing games just watching Netflix etc. Should the Mi Box be able to handle that. Looking at purchasing from this seller on Ebay - http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Xiaomi-Mi-Box-4K-Google-Android6-0-TV-BOX-HDR-International-Version-Voice-Remote-/122355472779?hash=item1c7cf4598b:g:PS4AAOSw241YhXlS - item is located in Dublin apparently so shouldn't be hit by customs. What do people think of the Zoomtak boxes? Are they any good or better off with Android TV on the Mi Box?

Quick update, bought this from eBay - ordered it on a Monday, received the following Monday with Paddy's Day so would definitely recommend the seller. The box is great, still getting to grips with its functionality - lots of options, just need to work out what I need. Thanks for the advice everyone

I have a keyboard remote that I bought when I got my Minix and I really like it - I tried the A2 but didn't like it at all, felt the one I already had was far more user friendly. So, when I upgrade this box, I'll be swapping that mouse over to the new one.
