I thought that was only for phones and tablets. I'm sure I've connected a laptop in the past and used it. Of course you would need to use an old browser that supports Silverlight......
I currently have it on an old PS3 and it works perfectly with the TV. So it would seem it works via HDMI when it wants to.;)
Maybe the OP can find a PS3 on ebay, I've seen them for around £30 on there.Drinking Rum before 10am makes you

Between stripping the walls, plastering, waiting for it to dry before I can decorate, having the flooring fitted could easily end up being a couple of months or more.
As for 'a lot of fuss', Using a couple of adapters to relocate the signal (if such a device had been available) seems like a very simple solution to me.
It looks like I'll be going for the simple solution of a couple of aerial extension leads across the floor. If they're in the way during the day they can just be unplugged & moved.0
