XBMC on Raspberry Pi - Wonder if this will work out? (Historical Discussion Thread)

i'm finding loads of places where i think "hmm, a raspi would be awesome there" around the house and even at work, can't wait until it comes out! Big Grin

At $35 for the B model I'll buy one purely out of curiousity - and of course to impress my geek friends :-)

Why would you do this?!?!?!?

I'll be dropping £25 the minute it's out. Then, I'll be dropping some more £'s on a Gertboard. Looks like it's gonna be a lot of fun!

Then, I'll probably have to buy another one to install xbmc on as well.... of course!

Just have to be patient now (and hope I can snag one of the first batch!)

Got something to say davilla? Big Grin

Raspberry pi with a purpose made xbmc, and purpose made touchscreen xbmc skin, would be awesome!

10" touchscreen wall mounted in every room, all your networked music at your fingertips!, but with XBMC nice-ness!

23" 1080p touchscreen in the spare room, movies too...

cant wait!

davilla, did you get a chance to test addons on the r-pi?
