Well, I received very nervous answers in their forum. According to what they answered to me, XBMC will be never supported. So I am wondering what sigma based device to buy.

Well, the point of companies such as Dune and PH is that they will to everything to avoid any integration of XBMC into Sigma and also in front of Sigma.

The answer is very easy. Hundreds of free Software Developers would have a lot of power to develope something more powerfull than any Mediaplayer currently on the market.

Sigma may well be supporting XBMC, it is up to their customers whether or not they use it.

Or they might have opted for Boxee.

It does seem nuts to me that no one has bought out a decent hardware player with XBMC on it.

Popcorn Hour's movie jukebox isn't close to XBMC, it seems pointless to try and develop the same thing again when there's already an open source version out there.

I've used an A-100 since it was first out and it served a good purpose, my parents use an A210 but I finally put Openelec onto a Revo 3610 and even my parents can use that. So dedicated hardware would completely dominate the market.

The the ohter Thread, a Dune HD Player is coming with XBMC as Front-End!!!
