Android Box

This looks good! I assume it's legal? How dies it work?

The box is legal, the legality issues are what you do with the repos on XBMC, but that is individual.

It is basicaly a set top box with HDMI that runs Android Kit Kat and has full media capability. You can stream anything, any channel in the world.
 
Let me know how you get on with it? I don't know anyone who has tried it but it looks good.

If it's easy to use and not too clunky I'd probably consider one

So this is a one off box that lets you watch any channel? where is the catch? I pay more for my monthly Sky than this box costs.
 
I've achieved a similar set up with a standard Raspberry Pi and loaded XBMC onto it. Plenty of guides available for whatever you want to do with it!
 
Aaaah that explains alot, always found it a bit flaky at times, so I mainly resort to plugging in the laptop to my tv or using the brilliant Chromecast. Looking forward to your review of this device LutonSpurs!
 
Are these things idiot proof or do you need a bit of know how?

A bit of know how but youtube videos galore to help mate. I have been rooting and playing with android for years and have a raspberry pi already with xbmc seperately.

it isnt rocket science though
 
Cool - is it a case of putting the work in setting it up but after that it's just a case of flicking through what's on offer?
 
This all sounds very interesting. Do you need a satelitte dish on the side of your house or not? I live in a flat a couple of floors up and don't really fancy the idea of hanging out the window!
 
Wow just had a couple of evening playing around on XBMC on my pc, great stuff love the way it sorts through my movies and tv shows.

As for streaming wow there is a lot of **** on TV out there.

Over all once you have watched a few you tubes on how to set things up it all very simple (apart from a bloody cant connect problem)
