I just Bought a Squeezebox Duet, a cool network music system by Logitech.
It has Linux (arm), WIFI, an SDK, you can ssh into it,
AND it uses Lua for a lot of internal stuff (applets, the menu system, etc, etc...). It shows that Lua is great for embeded Linux devices, and might be a source of great ideas for Iliad development ;-)
