Ive seen a few variation of this type of thing recently...

`Quad Core Android 4.4 Smart TV BOX Media Player XBMC HDMI WiFi HD Mini PC 8GB`

I dont really watch TV anymore, but a friend is looking for a way to get online ...and tbh his abillity with computers= i can use a remote control.

Been using pc since 94 and never migrated to consoles or handhelds; although i own a psion 5 !

XBMC is a risc based operating system right? people run this on rspberry pi.

SO this can be tinkered with?

End of the day the lad just wants to go on google for searches and open his email. Any of the media stuff would be a bonus to him.

Can he log into his email from this? or is it just a media player?

shame these cant be rigged to play EQ [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I suspect this is simply a listening device, so the chinese state security can read his emails...
