Two actually, the ET4000 and the XP1000, as you can see in the openpli-oe-core commits, both based on the bcm7358. They'll hit the shelves probably next month or so. There are a few pre-production samples available, which is basically what the update is for.

Both are small single tuner boxes, like the VU+solo but with a much faster CPU so that they run just as smooth as the other boxes. The new chipset also uses considerably less power than the previous ones, seems that Broadcom is warming up to that as well. They'll also be cheaper too, so people in the market for a new small HD box would do well to wait a few weeks...
