Interested in Android OS but don’t want to commit to a smartphone?

Looking at the picture, you might think this is another run-of-the-mill USB stick when in fact it’s so much more. For starters, that’s a HDMI port on the end not USB. And while it does have 4GB memory on it, this stick is also hauling a 1GHz processor, 512MB of DDR3 RAM, and Android 4.0 – all for use on your TV.

Right now you might be thinking your TV doesn’t have a touch screen, but don’t sweat it. This little stick supports wireless mice and also has a USB connector on its tail end, opening it up to a plentitude of possibilities. And since it’s an HDMI connection, you can easily run up to 1080p videos through it crisply onto your TV.

The device is being sold by geanee for 9,980 yen. Considering you’re basically buying a mini computer running Android without having to get locked into a mobile phone contract, that’s not such a bad deal.
