This is interesting:
A $99 Linux box built into a wall-wart with:
- 1.2ghz Arm5 based Sheeva processor
- 512mb ram
- 512mb flash
- gigabit ethernet
- USB 2.0
- 5 watts
[li]supports standard Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Gentoo)
but I don’t imagine you can just install them like on a desktop [/li]
Pretty cool if it would run WD.

Edit: oooh - the slot on the side appears to be an SDIO card slot and the mini-usb connector thing looks like the development interface. The docs include complete schematics and board layout photos.
