Rasberry pi is prob the best device ever for xbmc - its small and is powered by the usb port of your tv (if it has one) so it switches off when you turn your tv off or standby. You can also put it on android devices, mac, ios, but i prefer the Pi over them all. You could build a media centre pc and put xbmc on it and it would be your all in one music/video device and can be a pvr for tv too.
Now the best add-on is the xbmc hub. hard to explain what it is but it puts apps on them that checks the internet for content you want and 'streams' movies etc.
easy to setup, easy to use.
once you have it, you'll wonder how you ever did without it!

yes that would be perfect, but i would use a good(fast) usb thumb drive as xbmc is more responsive running from usb. But you need both sd+usb in for it to run. You can run without usb drive.
Now you will need this:
Hidden Content (with the network cable plugged in)
you can control the device via android tablet or ios type device or wireless keyboard and mouse if thats what you prefer.

or

@ nao i wouldn't know if its any good, I only have it on my laptop (works brill btw and your spoiled for choice) I might get around to getting a box at some point, what I do know is that you can get boxes that are about the size of a beer mat so I will probs get one of them at some point. In the meantime your better letting Alan or anyone other than me offer you advice Hidden Content .
Edit: had a quick look at your link and it looks ok to me but I wouldn't take my word for it Hidden Content
