    Default Android Google TV Box

    Hi, Hoping people could help with recommendation for an android tv box.
    Have been looking at various types on ebay.
    Would prefer latest OS which I think is android 4, 1080p video, play all media files including mkv, and be able to stream net tv channels.
    If anyone has been using or tested various products, I would appreciate feedbback.

    I have the logitec revue/google tv, great streamer, plays most files but not all. Excellent for internet tv, lounge surfing etc and xbmc is rumoured to be out for it very soon. Great bang for your buck, I got a refurbished one for just under $100 on amazon.

    well the new Sony Internet Tv is rumored as being the next google tv flagship... based on a Marvel 1.2 GHz dual core... it supports dual 1080p streams decoding.. and with Google tv moving away from the X86 processors used in the first generation of boxes.. im not sure its smart to go for a Logitech Revue.

    Mine is from Jaycar - not bad except for the crappy remote. I plugged in a wireless keyboard and mouse and very happy with it. Haven't got any mkv files to test for you but I think it does support them. Using the MediaHouse app to play movies on the Nas and its working a treat :-)
