A wonderful piece of kit. As the media centre is very much a stand alone unit I also downloaded Raspian and installed it on a second SD card so it could be used for other things. Would recommend this to anyone who wants to learn how to program, or who has children who wish to learn about the workings of a computer.

Great kit! Saved me the time of looking for individual items.

If you really want to please a friendly geek, give the media center kit (with rasp. pi, of course) as a gift. In this case it was a retirement gift for a fellow teacher. This may save his wife's sanity!

Good value, as would have cost more if items were bought separately.

Some pin, some jack, a bit of power and "voilĂ , les jeux sont fait". I connected my nas, now i can view movies. Nice interface, easy enough to understand. I'm very satisfied about this little Pi. Next time I'l try internet.

Fast shipment, excellent product. Plug the HDMI, network and power and insert the pre-formatted SD card. The movies are smooth, also in HD 1080. TV remote controller works without any problem: commands are sent to the Raspberry from TV via HDMI. No extra HW is needed. I couldn't ask more. Thank you!

Great kit to start right away but the SD card is unfortunately not what I call high quality. It is the most basic Class 4 SD card you can find on the market, while Openelec would require a Class 8 or 10. Apart from that, the only complaint left is about the RPi itself. It is a great little device but the missing power button defeats the purpose of a media center that doesn't have to be on all the time and it gets quite hot so I will never leave the device on. I live in Norway and shipping was surprisingly fast and very well packed.
