The PIA is, in fact a linux box. It has NOT hit any retail outlets yet, and does NOT require any ISP agreement to purchase. The machine will be demo'd on "Good Morning America" july 15. At this point it is anticipated that the machine will ship with Debian, though that is open to change. The machine is expected to be available in August for $199 in a base configuration. This includes video, sound, 2G HD, and modem. Processor will be in the 300Mhz range. Monitor Extra(tm).
For more information about the PIA, please visit the linux store web site: TheLinuxStore

The PIA will be demo'd live on "Good Morning America", July 15. It will appearently be a short segment showing "Linux for the Masses". Basic functionality is slated to be demo'd including: ISP connectivity, Email, Web Browsing, and word processing.

I'm sorry - at this point, we haven't really tried using the box as a firewall/router. So far, it's just been used as a lightweight desktop box.

Please let me assure you it *DOES* run Linux. The product has not been released yet, so it must have been something else you saw in Best Buy.
:-)
If your still skeptical - watch the demo on "Good Morning America" july 15
