The Pivos XIOS with the latest Linux XBMC image from the end of January 2013 is a really solid, really cheap XBMC solution!
I've been an XBMC fan from the modded Xbox days and I've played with many iterations of XBMC on many different hardware options.
The XIOS is extremely small, cheap, and the support Pivos has given the XBMC community should be supported.
The XIOS is an out of the box XBMC solution that includes an IR remote and the only thing I can think of that's missing is a MicroSD card required for upgrading the firmware image.

I have been running XBMC for 10 years now on almost every piece of hardware possible... and I have to say that the 3.0 version of Openelec, that was released a few days ago, running on the latest revision of RPi is really strong. I have only modestly overclocked to 800mhz and it runs great, Streams 1080p over wired network flawlessly. Paid a few bucks for the WMV and Mpeg2 licenses and haven't found anything that I can't play yet. Paired with an xbox dvd remote and a high amperage usb hub, I have less than $80 in it.
