If you mean this. It's still very, very early days and I doubt anyone over on XBMC has started even thinking of a port yet. As stated here. http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=176451
I'm more interested to see if it'll get an install for the XBone (unlikely).
Isn't this the N O W T V box too?

Not sure. I thought the NowTV was a Roku LT.
yeah now tv is lte this was 4 the roku 2 and 3
same guys are hinting they can put rokiu lte firmware on now tvs
coming "soon"
just like apple tv3 jailbreak (joke)
The roku (and NowTV box) will never be able to run XBMC. They do not have the processor or ram to cope. Plex works as it uses a plex "server" to do the hard work of transcoding.
Hacking a roku is almost pointless other than to block updates, change servers or customise things. It wont be able to do somehting it can't do.
Raspberry Pi's can just about run XBMC to a suitable level.

Any reason you want the roku in particular? A second hand Apple TV with a Broadcom crystal hd card will do pretty much whatever you need (I guess).
