I’ve just been informed about a special offer (for 2 more days) on Aliexpress for a mini PC based on Rockchip RK3066 called iPazzPort NC-812-19A, but it looks very much like CX803-II. You can get a dual core HDMI TV stick with 1GB RAM, 4GB Flash and an external antenna for about $30 including shipping here or here.
Here are the specifications:
- SoC – Rockchip RK3066 @ 1.6 GHz + Mali-400 MP4 GPU
- System Memory – 1GB DDR3 RAM
- Storage – 4GB NAND flash + micro SD slot (up to 32GB)
- Video Output – HDMI 1.4
- Connectivity – Wi-Fi – 802.11 b/g/n
- USB – 2x micro USB port (OTG + power) + 1x USB host port
- Power – 5V
- Dimensions – 101.2 x 48 x 9.5 mm
- Weight – 36g
The device is said to come with a USB cable, and a user’s manual (No power supply). Aliexpress listings do not mention the Android version, but the (apparently) official website lists Android 4.0 as the operating system, which is a bit disappointing. The regular price is $37.99 on that site.

There were a few at similar prices in the recent ‘Supernova Sales’. I think these happen every couple (?) of months 🙂
Some sales still going, MK809 II w/ Bluetooth for $28 (inc Singapore post, after $10 coupon…):

**** coupon doesn’t work! Anyone know how this NC-812-19A plays with picuntu?
Measy U2C-D mini PC dock for $16.40 looks good too. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Measy-U2C-D-Mini-PC-Holder-All-in-one-Dock-Stander-Extend-USB-ports-and-Card/1072969074.html
@onebir
Never heard about NC-812-19A before today, and Google tells me nobody ever tried, so it may require some work.

Re NC-812-19A, that’s why I was more interested in the other one! :p Oh well, $50 RK3188 sticks aren’t far off now…
@onebir
Oh deals everywhere…
just bought one and then i noticed it says 4 gig nand i wonder if i can flash it with custom roms that are made for the mk808
i also bought the mk809 ii too. so i will test them and if any good i will sell them to my friends (elderly people) who want to watch turkish tv shows there is a app called hd dizitv or something in the icon looks like a big blue box you can also watch english shows with turkish subs the video and sound i would rate 10 out of 10 the only let down is turkish subs you can watch all your shows like under the dome arrow avengers https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.argeus.dizitv&hl=en
@Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft)

my ipazz tv cloud stick just arrived and i have to say for $30 it’s all good even though its android 4.1.1 its got ehomemediashare app on it and i can use it as miracast stream content from net or phone also the device is pre rooted i have some problems with some turkish video apps and was wondering if its possible to flash with mk808 rom
@adem
Unless you’re 100% it’s the same hardware I wouldn’t do that. As far as I know RK3066 devices have a different kernel for different devices so a mk808 rom won’t work and will brick your device.
If you’re really unlucky a mk808 rom might even damage the hardware on your device by setting up the hardware in a wrong way in the bootloader and the kernel.
@Marius
thanks i will look into the actual specs before i proceed
@Marius
i found a finless cx 803 img that was having some problems with wifi but i some how found a kernel img whilest googling and changed the kernel img during flash (finless flashtool) and it all works good now i can watch video apps that i couldn’t before
