Same price bracket, faster Cortex A8 based processor, and (most importantly) marketed as "hackable" with available source & tech docs, and a community working on porting other OSes to it.
Even if you don't want to hack on it yourself, this means you're more likely to find interesting uses and software updates for it down the line.
