So their wares are actually solid?

I've been looking at Android-based TV boxen and I've been disappointed - there are very few players beating the Apple TV in that space. All the devices are either miserable (buggy, poor wifi, underpowered) or cost more than Apple's deviec. If you can't beat Apple on price and you're a Chinese no-name company, you're in the wrong business.

So far the only company that seems to be taking that market seriously is Amazon, and Amazon's android fork is far-enough-away from stock Android that it doesn't really count.

I keep hoping somebody would get some momentum and take a solid toe-hold.
