Have you seen Qi-Hardware's Ben NanoNote?
http://en.qi-hardware.com/wiki/Ben_NanoNote

Common price is about $99.
But it have QVGA scree, no USB host, no pointing device and only 32Mb of RAM.

Yocto have no BSP for it as well, but there is Jlime distro which is
based on OpenEmbedded. And I've seen Jlime OE-core layer somewhere on
github already.
