Raspberry PI is the only "Kodi box" made with consent and cooperation of Kodi developers. Good quality, but this is only a board
They were produced as an inexpensive computer with Linux in-mind, nothing to do with Kodi developers.

Kodi itself is just a platform, a freeware, open-source soft player available to anybody for downloading and modifying at the source code level. They have legal apps/addins repository, though this isn't anything impressive. Documentaries, music, news, not much else.
You're scaring people, you'll never need to mess with it's actual code. They're quite simple for anyone to setup, plus there's countless tutorials online.
Flirc adapters are usefull with older, or unsupported TV's that don't utilize CEC.

Edit: Pi does sell their boards with cases - as a kit. You need to put it all together, this might deter some users. Kind of a hobbyist approach - well, they are a nonprofit company.
