You can purchase a Hdmi Android Stick with a RK3288 Quad core A17 CPU running at 1.8ghz per core with a Mali-T764 GPU core 2GB Ram and 16GB storage, Wifi, Bluetooth 4.0, OTG usb, Full USB, Micro SD card, and Hdmi out. Just larger that a cigarette lighter for less the $100 and it would also have a wireless remote with standard android buttons built in. Why is this big news

This is much faster than an ARM based Android HDMI stick, this is a real computer not a "phone" based one with a real desktop OS. I have an Android HDMI stick, and it realy suck cause there is no OS updates except moded ones for it, and it is real slow.

@Textfield FYI Netflix is supported in Chrome 37 and later, which runs on up-to-date Ubuntu installations of 12.04 LTS, 14.04 LTS or later. That's since Oct 2014.
Regarding the device, it is a great way to carry an office in your pocket when you are travelling. Just plug into the hotel TV, unroll BT keyboard, and you are ready to do some work. I have a very nice ultrabook, but leaving it home completely is even better.
