I'm after an Android TV box as I'd like to use Netflix and BBC iPlayer via a proxy/VPN service.

Anyone got one of these ? (sorry can't post a link yet)

I have not heard of this device prior to your post.

For the same price you can get the Roku 3 or the OUYA console (although OUYA is only available from June). Both of these appear to have a larger media presence and reviews are plentiful. These may have extra functions that you may decide to use once you have the device.

Guess the Roku is more of a media player, whereas the Minix is an Android PC
