I wish I had time to mess with things like this.  I have barely enough 
time for working with stuff as it is. And these things require 
re-flashing, soldering, and other misc stuff just to get working with a 
real operating system.  And what are you left with?  Maybe a good thin 
X client that displays on a TV or monitor.  Maybe if I were dedicating 
it to MP3 player status on the TV but not much else I can think of.  
Probably not fast enough to play video...

So, for me at least, it's a $9 bookend.

Man, I'm grumpy this morning.  Maybe some coffee is in order...
