Awesome - thanks for the great write-up, Nick. Looks like it will do nicely.

I'm still waiting for the ideal media center hardware to emerge. 
Something under $200 I can just connect to my TV and network and bam, 
frontend done. Or add external storage and tuners to make it a fully 
functional PVR. The RaspPi is so close in many ways; great size, hw 
decoding, HDMI-CEC etc, but not enough grunt for fluid xbmc UI, and I 
suspect recording several HD channels at once would choke over USB2.0.
