  Says out of stock for me unless I select pick up at counter then it says next day?
  
  Not that I want one as by the time I buy a case, cables,psu and keyboard I'd probably be better buying a media player.

  Free delivery if your a business, though not sure when it will apply the £4.95 P&P.

  Yes. It is a small teaching computer but it also runs XBMC very well and can be a proper media centre for a relatively small amount of cash.
  I've got 2. One runs xbmc the other as a basic computer for one of the children. Thinking of sorting one out to use as an ip cam too. They are really rewarding when things go right.

  ok think I'm finally going to buy one of these as they look pretty cool
  I plan to use just for xbmc
  Before I do can someone tell me...
  Do I need to buy anything else I.e. power supply etc
  Wheres the best site to figure how to set this up as never used Linux etc before
  Can it handle 1080p ok and what is the output for audio, e.g optical or coax
  
  Thanks alot

  R_C: power is supplied from usb port - but if You want to use it for same extreme tasks like decoding big videos, better buy 1500mA USB power supply. You will need also SDHC card - min 4GB, HDMI cable to connect Your TV and optionally WIFI dongle.
  Audio Out is HDMI only, if You want to connect it to 500+pounds amplifier, then buying rPi is waste of money, but for normal purposes audio is ok :)
  JJ69: yep, I get confirmation with free P&P and im private person without any business.

  A phone or tablet charger with micro usb works.
  
  You can google the site/s, don't be lazy. If you're wanting to use this as a media center try installing OpenElec.
  
  It can handle 1080p and there's a 3.5mm audio output.
  
  Read the info on the Raspberry Pi site.

  Yeah just doing my research now looks straightforward enough
  
  One last question. What's the crack with the audio. At the moment I have an optical or coax input into my amp but not sure how I can get it to work with just a 3.5mm jack or hdmi?

  Unless your 500+pounds amp has HDMI and then this would be perfect, XBMC will put out HD audio over HDMI.

  Yea you probably wont be able to, unless your TV has an optical output that you could connect back to your amp.
