Have you considered multiple PCB designs? The high speed core part of
the layout would be identical on all of them. Just change the
peripherals around. Doing it that way eliminates the need for getting
all of the extra signals out on the EOMA board.

1) EOMA
2) HDMI stick (put a wifi module on it that already has FCC approval,
USB for power)
3) VGA out
4) Component HD or SD TV out
5) Dev board with everything accessible
6) SODIMM
7) HDMI MDL

This project does not need to pass UL or FCC radiator so there is no
large regulatory cost associated with multiple designs. You still get
volume component pricing since all PCBs will use the same core
components.

I suspect #2 would be the top seller.
