Pipo X9 @ 59.81 from China Warehouse.
Specs:
Pipo X9 Wifi 2G RAM 32GB ROM Tablet Mini PC Desktop Laptop TV Box Intel Atom Z3736f Quad Core 2.16 GHz Dual System (Windows 10 / Android 4.4 KitKat) HDMI 8.9 inch IPS Screen Mini PC Tablet Windows Media Box No Battery DC 12V W/ Charger
Reasonable price, although as the far-east holidays are about to start, any order placed early Feb probably won't ship until mid-Feb earliest so very likely earliest delivery could be well into March, by which time there could be a better deal and / or more attractive Z8300-based alternative becoming available. Plus after a 5-6week wait, you could be hit with circa £22 import-related fees.

I almost bought one last time bg had 'em on special! only managed to stay away as
a) I dont need one! and
b) the heat these units give off is, by all accounts, enough to cook a full English on... missed out on the mag/steak deal, might have to get this to console myself...

About £20. of which £12 tax and £8 for the Royal mail handling fee.

Interesting device... It has a touch screen so it doesn't need a monitor but it has PC-level connectivity.
I has no battery and you wouldn't want to use it as a tablet but it scores over the TV sticks in terms of functionality (losing out on discreteness).
A niche PC that might suit some people very well (i.e. a well-connected Media PC, controllable without putting the TV on or getting out the keyboard / mouse).
1920 x 1200 is probably overkill but at least you can screen-mirror at Full HD, unlike WXGA tablets.
Heated :smiley:
