I got the 19.99 pogoplug from J&R. Like others advertised as the P21 model both in add and on box. Sticker on unit stated it was a v2 and dmesg confirmed that. Installed arch in it as a V2 no problem. As I have 2 dockstars I was a bit bummed I didn't get a chance to play with the dual core V3 model. I don't believe it is J&Rs fault and it seems like to much of a hassle to comby maclaren - Debian
I didn't install debian but left the plugbox arch linux installed. So for my sins as pacman didn't have a mythtv package I had to compile from source :(. It all works rather nicely if you don't need to commflag or transcode. I picked up my dockstar for about $25 so it was sweet deal.by maclaren - Debian

Jeff, thanks for all your had work in helping make the dockstar more useful. I just wanted to let the community know about another application running on it. In my efforts to go greener I moved my mythtv backend onto the dockstar. I don't bother commercial flagging as I mainly record movies from commercial free satellite channels.
