No display or enclosure on the $99 system, development boards
with displays are $795 way and more than I need.

Here is a similar item at $200 or so, still no case though:

In an unrelated email, Aaron Burt pointed out that Power Over
Ethernet avoids the need for a wall wart at the remote end, just
an injector near the switch.  That supports many other things,
including wireless access points and cameras.  I could get rid
of a lot of wall warts that way, including the one currently
driving the Alix.

Regards the kits, I'm not looking for a hardware project, I'm 
hoping to find a complete little box with a very simple display
and a few buttons, that I can buy off the shelf.  An instant-on
wakeup button would be nice, it does not need to be displaying
or talking to the ethernet when I'm not using it.

I suspect what I want is not out there, and I will end up stringing
long USB cables to more Arduinos in boxes.
