So far I have been suggested Wandboard quad and Odriod-U2.
i can tell you that OLPC will be just as interested in any data you collect. all of our ARM builds to date have been done on a donated bare evaluation mother board from Marvell, which conveniently has expandable RAM (3G, i believe) and SATA ports. i would be inclined to exclude the Odroid board based on lack of SATA, and both boards you mention are limited to 2G of RAM. but we've not done much experimentation, so they might not be completely inappropriate. the recently announced Utilite (utilite-computer.com) looks interesting, but isn't available yet, so who knows? paul =--------------------- paul fox, p...@laptop.org _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
