Apparently you cannot get to the BIOS to make it boot from USB, so you are
stuck with Win CE, read it on the main Ubuntu forum a while back.

It must have USB? Make a bootable USB with Unetbootin (I don't know if
it's just me, but the Ubuntu CD Creator only seems to work with Ubuntu
isos?) Or just borrow a USB external CD drive?

It would be a lovely little machine if we could get it running some
Linux system or other.
It won't run Ubuntu but Puppy should be OK on it. Puppee has drivers for
the Intel Celeron and wifi chip in the early eeePCs, better check how
easy it is to install on this particular laptop though.

I'm using a Dell D410 daily, which is still a more than capable small
laptop, 1GB RAM, 40GB HDD, 1.86 Celeron or pentium M, not quite as
small as a netbook but not as big as the monster portable desktop

Which means they'll be £199.99 here - no matter what the exchange rate is.

If you're building a Boxee player, D-Link's Boxee Box is scheduled to be out
in November. No UK price as yet but they're 199.99 in the States.

Yup, unless you want to build your own, but the price difference would

I would like something in the less than £100 area...but doubt it. Building
it myself is out of the question...nothing will be that cheap.
The revo has the ion GC which handles the HD content. So no need for a
seperate GCard.
Hadnt thought about asking for the windows licence fee, will do that.
