Looks to me like you might be better off with the SheevaPlug (spec sheet
here) that Bugbyte is using, plus an Arduino board, all for less than half the money.
You may note that X10's unit looks suspiciously similar the SheevaPlug. I'd hazard a guess that they're the same physical unit, but X10 has added home automation software to their version.
