State of the Neuros Link open set-top box

Joe sez, "The Neuros LINK is a set-top box that takes a unique approach: unlike most closed set-top boxes, it's built from the ground up to be open. In fact, it started its 'gamma' phase of life as a stripped down PC, with the vision to become more 'electronics-like' using a remote, navigable from the couch etc. A recent release of its software shows how it's evolving on that path, with increasing functionality available without a mouse and keyboard, largely with the help of a lot of third party open source software, like XBMC, etc."
