A thread proposing a port of XBMC to the HDX Bone:
http://www.hdxforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=2878

The manufacturer expressed a willingness to support the effort, perhaps
even supplying a Linux development kit. It sounds like the hardware
should support XBMC, and the Telechips chipset apparently has Linux
drivers readily available. (A general port of XBMC to the ARM
architecture is still underway, so it'll be a while.)

Sounds like a good hacking platform.
