AMD demoed a very interesting device at CES. “Project Discovery” is about making your beautiful Smart TV even smarter. Basically a computer somewhere between the Raspberry Pie and Intel’s NUC, “Project Discovery” is a Tablet shaped box, designed to make your TV able to play PC games. It is powered by the Mullins SoC APU.

Don't think people understand this device :p
Not that I can see Mullins getting any traction, Intel's Baytrail as a mobile offering in Windows tablets will take some beating (And Intels next chip won't be miles off either.)
 
The picture up there is the dock, not the device, the device is the thin thing resting at the top of the tv.

People who have seen it basically saying, it's insanely thin, insanely small for a non arm sized chip. £40, what crack are people smoking, it's got a near enough £40 chip in it, it's a full PC in a teeny tiny little box and not an entirely slow pc.


The tango pc(I think that is what it's called) looks a bit more interesting though not much different. It's kind of like a pc in a old Nintendo cartridge format. You can put it in your pocket, it slots into a docking port, buy a couple ports, carrying around your pc with you between work/home/where ever else you go.

looks pretty interesting, I don't really have the spare cash to invest but if you buy early, they are sending out a free second and third system potentially after certain sales targets are hit. So you could potentially get 3 pocket pc's for the price of one.

Looks a little, grey, to me though. But some interesting devices coming for sure. They don't seem to be waiting on Beema over Kabini, which seems worth waiting for, though to be honest I'm not sure when it's supposed to be out. beema/mullins are being significantly improved.
 
Ok maybe the £40 remark was rash but i still fail to see just who this is aimed at exactly? Surely anyone who uses a tv already has the ability to play films from USB or has a set top box and uses a console or pc for gaming anyway?
