I'd like one just to plug into the TV. With the addition of a wireless keyboard and mouse my I could skip firing up a comp just to check my mail or buy a recurring item online.

Now my son has seen it, he's also queuing up.

as per this pipo. One one video reviewer uses a mac keyboard and mouse wirelessly connected to it
I have a tablet from them, A little glitchy at times and slow to boot up. Couple of years old now but very usable for what i need.
