Nice find, but:
- no Linux (yet) - you're stuck with Android for the time being
- from the Odroid web site:
"HDMI can support only 720p/1080p resolution with 16:9 wide display. HDMI-DVI converter will not work properly because Exynos4 HDMI is not compatible with VESA standard. So most of old PC monitors can't be used."

This is clearly aimed at developers of Android devices rather than hobbyists. If Raspberry PI is too underpowered for you and you're ready to pay in that price range, I think you'll be better off with the likes of Beagleboard or Pandaboard because of the community, wide selection of OSs and support.
