Apparently it has a hardware-based decoder for H.264 which is used in the .mp4 
format.  There was no mention of how high a bitrate can it support for smooth 
playback.  Also there is no mention of the hardware chipset able to decode 
other formats like xvid/divx, wmv.  Sana meron otherwise it may not play 
properly because players like VLC have to used a software-based decoder.

I'm interested in the Pi, not for video playing, but for things like building a 
3G/4G router+access point.

Even better, here is a video of the Raspberry Pi playing a movie trailer.
