Have you considered Apple TV? It's only 109 AUD down under :)<br>
Currently works for ios 6.1.<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>What's the advantage of buying a locked-in hardware and having to jail-break it? It has a single-core A5 (I'm looking at the 3rd generation specs) vs. 4-core i.MX6 Quad. I guess if it can run anything but iOS then it'll require extra work compared to pre-loaded debian/ubuntu/whatever for the CuBOX.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So again - what's the advantage of Apple TV hardware over the Cubox? Is the Apple TV more power efficient? Does it have more useful ports? (I couldn't find full specs to compare, seems they both have one HDMI port and support roughly the same kind of other inputs and outputs)?</div>

rPi?<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I looked up "rpi" and the closest I found was the raspberry pi site with this quick-start-guide: <a href="http://www.raspberrypi.org/quick-start-guide">http://www.raspberrypi.org/quick-start-guide</a> i.e. as far as I get it, I'll still have to find many parts around it. While it really sounds like fun to play with the rPi, i don't have time for this and am looking for something that I can can mostly plug, perhaps configure some software on, then use it.</div>

I have 2 jb atv almost 2 years now, currently running xbmc v12.3
without a hiccup.<br>
Software selection is a bit scant<br>
I'll use rPI as servers for other apps.</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>How did you get the hardware around the rPi?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for your response.</div><div><br></div><div>--Amos</div><div>
