All I can say is I wish you the best. Having a Myth frontend that will run on 
a Myka or other NMT type device would be great.

I'd start with trying to get just the frontend running, not a complete Myth 
system.

The AppleTV port, and MiniMyth would be good starting points. While not using 
a Sigma type hardware decoder, they are steps towards getting Myth running 
on "lesser" hardware.

Again, all the best to you and your project. I'm sure the folks here will help 
all they can.
