I suppose it is a bare-bone RPi, i.e. no enclosure and no AC/DC adapter. If that is the case, then it will probably cost $50+ by the time the RPi is furnished with an enclosure + an AC/DC adapter. WIth that kind of money, it is possible to get an Android GoogleTV on a USB dongle with an RK3166 Dual-Core Cortex A9 CPU clocked @1.6GHz + 1GB RAM + at least 4GB NAND + HDMI port + USB2 port. I believe it will be more fun to hack this device and an RPi, YMMV.<br clear="all">
