Bagatela je realno. Vec sam zamislio kako bih ugradio ovu platformu u zid novog stana . Ne znam da li ima podrsku za touch display? Ako ima perverzija! To bi mi resilo muke smart home-a

Pretpostavljam da će uskoro predstaviti verziju koja podržava 1080p. E to bi bilo super. Nečujna mašina za net i filmove.
Nadam se da će imati uspeha na tržištu.
