Yeah, mplayer and mythtv are the big questions, I'm sure they run fine now, but I'll wager some Cell specific code shows up in those apps pretty quickly. Forget about files that need a win32 codec though, like newer wmvs. And it won't run windows in wine without a cpu emulator, you'll be lucky to get 486 performance... don't bother.
And though Yellow Dog Linux gets bonus points for running e17 out of the box, it fails for being a Redhat-based distro, which are a royal pain to deal with. Really, just about any distro with a PPC port will work with a little tweaking, I'm looking forward to debian. If I could afford one of those damn things. And the hdtv to go with it.
And if they stay true to rumor and have full 3d acceleration eventually, I'm buying one anyway.
