If you want a cheap board that is well supported and very actively developed
by OE (both dev and stable/2009) then the obvious choice is the BeagleBoard.
You would need to add Ethernet into the mix but a simple USB stick (or I/C)
can do that job well.

It's a Cortex-A7 board so it may be over the top in the capacity stakes but
it's hard to knock it ;-).
