Damn remote won't turn the boxee on.
DAMN.
This would make the remote impressive.
Boxee missed the boat on no "Power On" from the remote.

Impressive list of Features and Limitations.

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1265799

Limitations:

# RF remote control won't integrate in universal remote setups (although speculation exists for support of USB IR adapters).
# Cannot turn box on via IR remote, turning it off via IR remote will require a key press sequence so might not be mappable for universal remotes.
# No scraping of local artwork and .nfo
# No ability to centrally manage any kind of media database for multiple boxee boxes.
# Does not break out media shares by content type (movies, TV shows, home movies, etc)... appears to rely on IMDB entirely for scraping.
# No content partnerships announced.
# Cannot play DRM protected files.
# No support for USB attached optical drive
# No support for TV tuner or direct DVR functionality
# No standardized SDK for easier application development
# Boxee delayed the introduction of the Boxee Box, which was originally slated to go on sale in Q1 2010 to November of 2010 due to concerns that the software was not in a good enough slate for release due to performance issues with Tegra 2. This has led to concerns about the software quality on the final shipping product or that there might be large deviation between what is seen in the Beta for use on PC and Mac and what the set top box version will be like

ASrock Ion 330HT - XBMCFreak 10.1 Lucid LiveCD. Everything works but System sounds over HDMI.
