Just as a heads-up if anyone’s interested?

No, not that Apple thing, but the O2 Joggler.

50 quid (for 14 days from 2nd April) and free delivery gets you a 7
inch touch screen device with:-

1.3GHz Intel Atom CPU
1GB storage
512MB RAM
Wired ethernet
Broadcom b/g/n WiFi
Audio + headphone jack
USB port

http://shop.o2.co.uk/joggler

It seems to come with a cut-down version of Ubuntu Hardy and can be
flashed to run ‘proper’ Ubuntu or Netbook Edition if you wish.

I thought it might be useful as a mythtv frontend for my desk or
bedside, or maybe even an IP telephone when paired with a suitable USB
headset.

Some links I’ve gathered:-
