Bluetooth is a must have imho - it seems to be the de-facto standard
for wireless peripherals.

Cool software like the Salling Clicker - the ability to remote control
BT enabled hardware is just awesome. Walk into a room and your PC/Mac
starts-up, checks your mail and plays your favourite tune based on
proximity.

Built in wireless for comms would be great too.

I guess the advantage of basing a new platform on a linux base means
you get to easily leverage drivers for whatever hardware comes along.
