Me, I just want a cheap low power mailserver. Perhaps if XBMC works well enough, there's that too.

I didn't mean things like NICs. Instead I was talking about sensors and such.

The Raspberry Pi is not targeting the Arduino's use case.

Instead the Raspberry Pi is supposed to be an incredibly cheap computer and for that the only sensor you need is a usb keyboard.
