You’re probably best off asking ‘cheshired5’ on this forum. He sells tried and tested dice units, and can supply a laptop all set up as well. Many of the Chinese units are dead on arrival.

I've recently bought a Volvo VCX Nano rather than the Dice and it works great.
It works with VIDA just the same.

I have it but it's a chinese clone. You can do pretty much anything with it except updating software.

Another vote here for CheshireD5 or Vindo.
Both are extremely helpful and offer great, ready to run complete packages. If price is an issue, save up. You'll save yourself at least two headaches later on.

I have and use a cheap chinese clone (£50 ish off ebay) and use it no problems (bit of a toil setting up but worth it).
If you want it set up and ready to go see the users recommended above. If you want to save money and do it yourself - go for the ebay option.

I'm also using a cheap DICE bought from Aliexpress.
Purchased it in 2013 and still working fine.
