The news is that the device is set to launch this October, and it’ll have a very attractive price point to attract potential buyers. Long story short: you probably don’t need to save more than $100.

Received this email from Geekbuying this a couple of days ago. It appears they will be receiving them next week and will start shipping them. Again, I am confused, because I had the understanding that the US version was to only be sold in the US and Canada. Guess I will know in a couple of weeks.

Dear Sir or Madam

Thank you for your order from Geekbuying.

We are sorry to tell you that the item you ordered "371297 MI BOX H.265 210250 " is too popular to meet all the demands ,

we just need to get them from the factory .it is estimated that it will be in stock next week.
please don't worry ,once it is in stock , we will ship it out ASAP. and will send you a message with the tracking number.
We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Best regards,
Silvia

I wonder if ethernet will work trough usb to ethernet adapter as it is half the price of shield.

Since the box is using miui, the chances are it won't work.

Hey guys,

I just saw this posted on another site. The first sign of Mi Boxes appearing on shelves.
This picture was apparently taken at a Wal-Mart today.

Wow, released quietly ... hopefully not a bad sign. Good price.

I think the 69 price tag is for a netgear router :p

Nope. It's for the Mi Box. If you look closely, just above the $69 price it says "MI BOX" in small font.
Edit: I changed the pic to a more clearer one (when it was uploaded to imgur it lost some of it's quality).

Why would Xiaomi not make a bigger deal about this being out? Unless Wal-Mart put it out before street date? Guessing.

Yeah it's possible it wasn't meant to be put on shelves just yet and a Walmart employee screwed up. But the fact that they have them ready to go must mean it's soon.
