Samsung Homesync hands-on at MWC

1. I'm getting tired of these limited Android devices for TVs. You get some primitive first gen version of Android that can only run a limited amount of Apps. Simple ones too. How hard is to release a device that runs exactly like a mobile phone or tablet but on your TV? This whole syncing thing is lame.

2. Can someone please answer me this question. Does the device actually run apps and I don't mean by syncing either and I don't mean basic apps. I mean most apps in the Google play store. Angry Birds, Temple Run etc? Because then this device is no better than Google TV. Yeah syncing might be cool but they'll be a delay. WTF can't they create a device for a TV with a Android tablet OS? It's always half-assed. I guess that's why Ouya exist?

3. get a mini pc running jellybean and attach your own drive to it and you save at least $100

4. There are TONS of mini computers the size of credit cards and other tiny shapes with way better hardware specs than this TV that can be plugged directly into the HDMI. And of course, Android and Linux(and hence, XMBC and similar programs) will run on all of them.

   Buddy, where have you been? Welcome to yesterday. No need to limit your self to just 1 hardware option in a TV.

5. Wow…. If I can run Plex and reverse rsync all my flac to the 1TB drive…

6. If XBMC can fit in there, i'm sold

7. What apps can run on here? Any apps or just certain ones? Also same with playstore, is it a limited playstore? Lastly, does it require a Sammy phone or will most any android phone work? Thx Phil

8. Cool
