You probably heard about the Beagleboard at Beagleboard.org

Now comes the Beaglebone:

You can program it with Linux and it will have a daughterboard called a "cape" which will do video.

Isn't it about time you learned something about microcontrollers for single board computers?

"A DVI-D board is in the prototype phase right now. HDMI, VGA and LCD boards will follow.
Plans for a Wi-Fi+Battery board are still in the very preliminary phases. We've engaged several open hardware developers for sensor and other interesting peripheral boards, but no hard commitments for a roadmap yet. We are in the very early life of the BeagleBone and I expect to see more available "sheilds", "capes", "peripheral boards" or whatever you want to call them than you can count!"

I think this is a more open product than the Pandora and I ask you the users to ask what would be in the future for Amiga users if there was a forum for this product.
