Android box.

There was a thread the other week on here, but not a lot said about the actual box and the people selling them.. There's 100's of them on eBay all at various prices from £30 to over £100 but they all seem to say they do the same thing more or less. So which ones are proper and work tidy and which ones are scams? And shall I go for the expensive ones or are they exactly the same. I basically want the 3pm football all movies :ayatollah:

You only needs to purchase Raspberry Pi and put XMBC software onto the device. Or anything you can install XMBC onto.

Both it makes your tv become a smart one through hdmi cable ,surf web ,you tube net flicks etc ,and obviously it needs to be linked to your broadband router
