VIA EPIA PX-Series Pico-ITX Mainboard

I'm really curious if anyone have had the opportunity to get their hands on the new Via EPIA pico boards; I mean - Wow! - How tiny can a complete system get? I've installed eCS on the VIA EPIA MII board and that actually worked fine; so it would be really cool to see an installation review on this board.

The VIA EPIA PX mainboard is the first commercial mainboard based on VIA's Pico-ITX form factor measuring just 10cm x 7.2cm. Designed to enable x86 to be built into embedded systems where it was previously impractical for space reasons, the VIA EPIA PX provides a full complement of multimedia and connectivity options on a platform smaller than any standard mainboard or x86 system on module.

A Google search for reviews of the mini-itx.   8) http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=pico-itx+review&btnG=Google+Search

The Mini-Box link was great; what I'm looking for now are housing for the pico boards; there is nothing available and it would be even nicer if there would be housing available for multiply boards.

Like the projects at http://www.mini-itx.com , one could probably get creative with the computer box and use something that is not normally associated with a computer.  ;D   8)
