Android smart TV dongles. Anyone got one?

[DrR]

Looking at getting one of these?

In my mind i'm expecting an Android phone put on my TV screen, can I watch I player, 4 on demand etc etc?

They any good?

got a riko-magic. It's ok and was very cheap. I pretty much use it for iPlayer, but with a better keyboard and mouse (I've got the remote control sized mini keyboard and track pad at the moment) it would be a good web browsing tool. Cheap android stuff is a little frustrating at the moment as Flash is being fazed out, but alternatives are filtering through. Dolphin browser makes iPlayer work on mine for example as it has it's own built in flash player. With a good mouse, angry birds is hilarious in 32 inch

decent place to buy http://www.futeko.com/browse.php?cat=mp

Cool cheers, cheapness appeals to me, just be fun to play with, or for when can't be bothered to put laptop on etc.

I have a uhost2 dual core dongle with an air mouse, great for running xbmc.

Just looking for another one of these, just to connect a USB hard drive to the TV, any recommendations?

 

[Gavin.]

The one I listed above is for sale, it's one of the best out there apparently.

 

[DrR]

is "uhost2" a typo?

 

[Gavin.]

No mate, that's what model / name of the dongle.

Mine came from a group buy on here: http://tabletrepublic.com/forum/android-tablet-chat/best-dual-core-processors-1999.html

Ok thanks.
