Pegatron shows off Tegra 2-based HTPC

Engadget snapped some photos of a compact home theater PC from Pegatron that is based on the NVIDIA Tegra 2 SoC. Pricing and availability is unknown, but the site guesstimates something like this may go for $100 or so.
The thin plastic box is topped by what looks to be bamboo, with HDMI, Ethernet, microphone and speaker plugs around back. We're very much in the dark as to supposed capabilities or software, but Tegra 2 gives us a good hint: the chip can decode 1080p and Flash video, runs Android or Windows CE, and is the same thing under the hood of the Boxee Box.
