Re: Small hardware network sniffer - does it exist?

The small form factor (RJ45 size) Linux is called the Digi Connect ME
(picotux). It has only one ethernet port, so you can't directly use it
for bridge/sniffing (except if you decide to arp spoof or use some other
technique to redirect traffic).

Otherwise, you should have a look at the wrap routers (pcengines.ch).
These devices are great, they have a i586 compatible processor and the
case design is nice (good metal finish). The cost is about 160$.
