OpenELEC 5.0 - Hackdot

I can warmly recommend the Gigabyte Brix GB-BXBT-2807 to anyone looking for a completely fanless, quick, and fully supported device. As of OpenELEC 5.0 wireless and bluetooth has been working out of the box. They're on the expensive side of the spectrum, but very quick and neat little boxes.

This is tangental, but is there a place online that aggregates all of these smaller boxes or boards?

For example, if I'm looking for something more powerful than a Raspberry Pi / Arduino / Beagle, etc. but not quite the level of an i3, where would I look?

There are a few sites that deal with single-board computer news like: http://armdevices.net http://liliputing.com http://linuxgizmos.com

Quickly, you might take a look at the ODROID boards, they nicely cover the lower price and performance spectrum and do a nice job supporting them: http://www.hardkernel.com/main/main.php

another one: any chromebox (and use the EZ Setup script for OpenELEC) (I have the hp one and am very happy with it)

I can't believe I didn't think of the Chromebox when researching for a good device. They look perfect for the job, and a lot cheaper too since you don't have to get DDR3L memory.
