I got this recently. ($14!) www.amazon.com/iPazzPort-Wireless-Keyboard-Touchpad-Android/dp/B017UEGT4O/PortIt was to supplement this HDMI 2.0 $30 streaming box for internet purposes and HTPC use in the bedroom system. www.amazon.com/WELLWIN-Android-Amlogic-installed-Supports/dp/B00VRE3Y38/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&qid=1466879920&sr=8-13&keywords=streaming+media+playerI haven't had a chance to try it in the bedroom (that's what she said) but I did try it out. It has a rechargeable battery and it acts as a mouse and keyboard and is slightly bigger than a PlayStation game pad. This replaces a full size keyboard and mouse. On the whole everything is functional and does what it's supposed to do without much fuss. Some things stood out for me. The keyboard has a clicky feel to it which helps. It has some nice function keys - like a volume button, an internet, email, and a search email button. It also supports gestures and multi touch. So two finger scroll works for the mouse wheel. Two finger tap is the middle mouse button and three finger tap is the right mouse button. It also has physical mouse buttons on the side of the keyboard and the touch pad as well if you don't want to mess with gestures. I found the gestures to be just fine. So if anybody is looking for something like this, I thought I'd give you a heads up. Small cheap and does its job. I shall update it when I get it installed in the bedroom system as to things like range etc.

Okay so I tried it out. The good news is it works. The bad news is that it's a bit eccentric. It takes a weird way for it to recognize the keyboad fo the android tv. On my home PC, the keyboard worked. But then it sopped working but the mouse worked. So I am confused as to why that was.

Maybe its because it was $14? I have a regular sized Logitech 'Unified' wireless keyboard & mouse that work with my dual boot HTPC - AND it works when I'm in the BIOS to boot to a different drive when I switch op systems. Seems I can't completely get away from windows!
