Really. Do you know what else I can do with these? I heard that it supports xbmc too.
 
What about the sat side of things, can anything be done with that, cams etc?

Mine just decided to go into part boot shows as far as media art ultra 7 on screen then nothing. Doesn't seem to be a way of factory reset no reset button or any way to reflash the image was a great little box multisat,xbmc and showbox worked great on it
 
The only issue I can see is the processor speed and the fact its running android ice cream sandwich. Android xbmc is now on version kodi, most new android units are on kit kat now. Its a bit old tech for me I'm afraid.

  • ARM Cortex-A9 1.2ghz 2500DMIPS
  • Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
 
what's the satellite side of it like for sky uk ? 7 day epg ?
