HDX bone - step 1

I was looking for a media center since a while, but with no luck. The 2 mains criterias was the playable codec and a cool gui with movie cover, ...

My short list was:

• Mac mini with plex : the top but expensive and without hdmi (until now)
• WD TV Live: great offer but do not include hard drive inside
• Xtreamer: Hdd case but poor UI design

Well i was digging the web for the best deal, till i found the HDX Bone.

This brand new media player is small form factor case that can hold a 2'5 HDD, can read almost all video format but the key feature is the dual boot with Android, for the moment is quite useless (bring internet access) but open nice perspective.

So i decided to go for this chinese model since it is not too expensive 119$ + 35$ shipping (128 euros)
EDIT: plus 17 euros customs taxes !

Since it was hard to find information on this model, i decided to share my experience with you :-)

For now i've place my order the june 22 and now i wait ....
