I'm with Andy,
To my mind, we are spreading ourselves too thin on the ground to support
multiple Architectures.

In my experience, the Odroid H2+ is a much better candidate with an Intel
processor and a complete PC that fits in the palm of your hand.
Yes it costs a bit more than a PI but it does not have the latency issues I
see reported with the Pi.

The Odroid H2+ uses a Realtek 8125 Network interface to give 2 x  2.5 Gb
ethernet connections so its perfect to be used with Mesa hardware.
The 24 pin GPIO header includes 2 x serial UARTS and access to some other
cool hardware
Unfortunately, this driver is not yet in the Linux kernel but is available
from Realtek under the GPL license here

It would be really nice if this driver could be included in our ISO.
Everything else is supported out of the box with the standard distribution
ISO's
