[Meego-tv] Regarding Porting Meego on IntelCE4100

[Niels Mayer]

It would be great if a more readily available mass-production solution
were available for MeeGo TV development.

Is there anything about a box like the following that wouldn't make it
appropriate for MeeGo TV development?

SAPPHIRE Announces EDGE-HD2 Mini PC

Building on the success of its first Mini PC, hailed as the smallest
PC in the world, SAPPHIRE Technology – the world leading manufacturer
and supplier of PC graphics cards and mainboards has just introduced a
new model – the SAPPHIRE EDGE-HD2. The SAPPHIRE EDGE-HD2 shares the
same slim, stylish outline as the earlier model but delivers slightly
higher performance and is now also available with a pre-loaded
operating system. At less than half a litre in volume, it is slimmer
and smaller than most wireless access points – in fact around the size
of a paperback book! Its stylish design and simple pedestal mount make
it equally at home next to a TV or business monitor whilst occupying
the minimum of desk or shelf space.

Responding to customer demand, the new SAPPHIRE EDGE-HD2 is available
optionally pre-loaded with Windows 7 Ultimate Edition, and this
version is available with a VESA compatible mount to allow it to be
unobtrusively fitted behind a monitor or TV.

Despite its small size, the SAPPHIRE EDGE-HD2 is a fully featured PC
for home, education or business use. Specifications include a second
generation 1.8GHz dual core processor, 2GB of DDR3 memory, a 320GB
hard drive and built in wireless connectivity as well as high speed
LAN port and four USB ports. It provides high resolution graphics
output with a full HD (1920x1080) HDMI interface (with an HDMI cable
and HDMI-DVI adapter also supplied) as well as a VGA monitor output
and it has built-in audio with mic-in and line-out sockets. All of
this makes it more than capable of handling day to day Office tasks as
well as streaming video or browsing the Internet.

The SAPPHIRE Mini PC family is a top scorer in power efficiency.
Consuming less than 30W even under load, the members of the SAPPHIRE
Mini PC family use around 10 times less power than a typical desktop
PC – and less than most notebooks – making it one of the Greenest PC
solutions available. Power and space savings alone can justify
switching to the Mini PC for many businesses*.

The SAPPHIRE EDGE-HD2 Mini PC is ideal for integration into an office
or education environment. The end user or system integrator has a free
choice of keyboard or mouse, which can be either wireless or USB
connected.

The new SAPPHIRE EDGE-HD2 is optionally supplied pre-installed with
Windows 7 Ultimate edition, or pre-loaded with FREE DOS, ready for the
reseller or end user to install the preferred choice of operating
system. All appropriate drivers are supplied on CD.
