BeagleBone

Another similar, but much cheaper board, is also coming out soon. It's called Raspberry Pi, and you lose a bit of power (700mhz ARM11 but still has a graphics chip) but it has a much nicer price point of $25 (128mb RAM, 1 USB port) or $35 (256mb RAM, 2 USB ports, and Ethernet). The maximum power consumption is supposed to be ~3.5W.

I agree that the Raspberry Pi is a cool little board but it really isn't on the same level as this. Besides the Cortex 8 being much more powerful than the ARM11 (there are plenty of good articles comparing the architectures) the Beagle bone is designed to be built around and you will see a lot more support in the open-source community for the beaglebone.
