[clug-talk] stamp processors

[Kin C Wong]

I have a hardware / software project that I have been wanting to do for a 
long time.  It consists of decoding infrared signals like those from a tv 
remote, process those signals and output currently via RS232 but ideally 
via USB to a desktop application (windows currently).  I want to replace 
these units with something more flexible.  For the longest time I have been 
wanting to use something like a PIC processor to do this.

Picking up the latest Linux Journal, I found some ARM9 single board 
computer that sells for $119USD (unfortunately, you have to buy a hundred 
of them) and boots TS-Linux from on-board flash.  Are there any miniature 
linux and hardware gurus out there that have comments.  (Still looking for 
Feb Linux Journal.)
