Actually, what the new Beagleboard revisions has is an HDMI *connector*, 
that outputs a DVI-D signal, not HDMI.

Mind you, DVI-D and HDMI are compatible (in fact, you could say that 
HDMI - Audio == DVI-D), so it actually works if you plug an HDMI cable 
into your TV (no audio though).

The beagle board is still short of Ethernet, which I find annoying, but 
is much cheaper then the alternative board I provided.
