Just wondering if anyone has tried one of these with XBMC, has a very good review on "lilliputing", the price is right, and includes free delivery, running Android 4.1.

This one has a Rockchip chipset. There is no hardware acceleration support yet.
This means HD videos will stutter.
If you want to watch HD videos with an Android device, you should have a very fast processor, like the one in the SGSIII or buy an Android box with the Amlogic M3 chipset.
This one is already supported with HW acceleration, because the Android XBMC was built for the Pivos Xios which has an Amlogic chipset.
Actually there are quite a lot Android boxes with this chipset, just google it. Most of them come from China.

Just got mine two days ago. It is a neat device w/ a good remote. Hulu is unsupported on it, but I found a hacked .apk that works, however the quality is not great, not sure if it is the .apk not.
I bought it to run XBMC, I am running the RC of Frodo which I do not think has HW acceleration, I hear that the final release of Frodo does which I am hoping fixes the video stutter when streaming shows from CBS & PBS.
Any suggestions on tweaks in XBMC to handle video stuttering?
Let me know if you have any other questions. .
Edit* Stutter was fixed with the final release of Frodo.

What can be compared to this but that plays 1080 without concerns?
Also, what is Pivos Xios?
Thanks

Anyone buy from this site? Are they reputable?
I am also concerned about getting a tax bill after delivery - I am in Canada.
