Here’s a link with a video that shows the Raspberry-Pi alpha hardware playing a 1080p video. The video also gives you a good view of the board itself.

Nothing really against these Broadcom or Marvel SoC boards but I don’t know how much hacking people will do as the chip datasheets normally require a NDA. Obviously this is going to run an OS so you might not need any bare metal access, but for me at least that is half of the fun. If they can actually bring it out for close to their 25 dollars as long as it retains the ability to do serial, Ethernet, a display and a USB host then it will be popular. Even if they get it in at 50 dollars it could have a major impact. I see a big market for a cheap basic wired computer. Atom has a software leg up in this area if Intel gets its act together, but ARM devices like this will dominate if they don’t within a year or two. There are a lot of uses where a Pentium level of performance is more than enough and you just need a terminal with a lot of software you can reuse.
