According to LinuxDevices, such a device has been announced:

There is even a youtube video about it here:

Considering we have no hardware acceleration support by adobe flash on Linux, I can't see this device playing 1080p flash files very well, unless maybe if gnash + va-api is used, you might get smooth 1080p video on youtube, but obviously not hulu.?

GMA500 graphics a.k.a. Poulsbo is badly supported in Linux, normal use desktop is ok, but you get no hardware video decoding, so certainly no 1080p either.

What I would like to see is a Atom Z-series cpu mobo with ION, that would be nice!
