Always Innovating HDMI dongle brings Android to your ‘dumb TV’ (video)

Google TV’s looking for a second wind here at CES, but for those of you uninterested in buying a new TV (or a new set-top box, for that matter), here’s a little diddy that just might tickle your fancy. Always Innovating is making a triumphant return to Las Vegas with what might be the raddest little gizmo of the show. The simply-titled HDMI Dongle is effectively an entire system on a chip dongle (and yeah, it looks a lot like Roku’s Streaming Stick ), boasting a Cortex-A9, between 256MB and 1GB of RAM, inbuilt WiFi / Bluetooth, an NFC module and even an accelerometer

For the eight millionaires who’ve been watching the pre-release of Killer Elite on their in-home Christie CP2230, we’ve got exemplary news for you: your already-amazing image quality is about to get even better.
