Advantages: it has audio out and seem to me of better facture (sturdy) than the two only others rk3066 sticks I know that have analog output: b12/NX003-II and mk806/ak806/mp802...
The manufacturer has already drop a couple of new firmware update on its website and has made it available from there. It also is available on amazon/US/UK.
I did not received it yet. But main point is audio out with bluetooth. The manufacturer told me quality build very good. As I can see in reviews of mk802 iii it feels somewhat cheap. Well I don't want to tell much since I did not try it yet. But from my own experiences, Dick's support has nothing to do with others...
I make some kind of review when I'll get it. By the way I am not affiliate with him. I was just waiting for a rk3066 with audio out and that looks good. Mk806 w/o BT dix mot conviced me totally. That's all. Time will tell...

Got mine today. Seems good so far. Haven't tried to install picuntu yet; the fact that this has an RK903 would preclude wifi from working at the moment.
Edit: Put the picuntu kernel on the recovery partition and the root filesystem on a 64gb microsdxc, and it seems to work fine.
I'll have to find an asix usb ethernet adapter to further test it.
Here's some pics. Looks mostly identical to the board in the video, but this is V1.2 rather than 1.0.
The open 24-pin header below the RK3066 is intriguing...
Found my asix usb ethernet adapter so I finally got around to configuring picuntu.
It seems to work well with the normal kernel.
For giggles, I also tried olegk0's mk808 kernel, which sadly didn't want to boot.
Some of the power functionality is backwards with my device.
Shutting down, either from android or Ubuntu, reboots the system into android. Choosing to reboot (also either from android or in ubuntu) effectively shuts the system down- though the power light stays on.
Just got my RK3066 from Timing Power, darn just missed the 8 GB version, oh well bought an 8 and 32GB (10) cards from ADATA and they work well.
Some questions please and thank you. I have a powered USB 3 hub built into my Asus PA246Q monitor and it works fine, everything I plug in works with it plugged into the RK3066. I have an old MAC mini circa 2006 USB keyboard with 2 USB ports built in and have a Logitech Cordless Click wireless mouse transceiver plugged into the keyboard and it works through the Asus monitor. I can also plug the keyboard into the RK3066 with the mouse transceiver and it works UNTILL I try to plug in a USB drive or powered usb external drive or a card reader then I lose all connection. Same thing happens when I used two different cheap USB hubs with power. I tested the power and it lights a 10 LED USB lamp. I even went and bought a $25 iCAN hub with 3.5 amp supply and it does the same thing. Does anyone know of a USB hub that works so I can use this on my TV?
Somewhere I changed a setting trying to get the USB to work. I think it was SYSTEM SETTINGS ...USB and I changed it from something to MASS STORAGE. I remember there were 3 dots at the top of the screen to get to this setting, but they are gone...maybe. I'm lost now can please tell me where I went wrong?
With Bluetooth on I can use my Apple Magic Mouse but not the little Apple Wireless Keyboard or the Magic Track Pad. Any ideas please? Has anybody have any luck with a bluetooth controller so I don't need a full size unit at the TV? Is there a list anywhere?
Lastly is there an APP to manage my USB hardware and a way to copy some stuff onto the 32GB micro SD card in the RK3066. Jim
