Really tempted to get on of these as a small for factor pc. As all I want to do is stream videos to my tv. I've looked at videos using xbmc amd it looks pretty decent ... Does video at 1080p

Has anyone got there hands on this yet.. I know they are sold out at the minute ... Really want to see how it is

Massive thread on it in the linux section, I'd head there dude ;-)

But to answer your question no one has one yet as a manufacturing fault with the ethernet port has held them up.

Mine is due beginning of April. Got lots of fun things planned for it.

I see they have a slight glitch with the Raspberry Pi, a network issue, which has delayed things.
Not sure whether it affects them worldwide though.

They sold out the first 100,000 units in a few minutes, the site crashed along with it. I think they are currently having some problems with one of the parts, but you can currently pre-order one. Check out the official website, they seem to be pretty good at keeping things up to date.
