Yeah, I did. None of them seem to support a CF or SD card, just mini-pci. I 
looked for a mini-pci to CF or SD adaper but didn't find one. Also, I really 
like the fact that the OpenRB supports POE. The environments for this all have 
POE all over the place. It will make for a very simple box that you just plug 
into the network. Also I didn't see anything about routerbaord supporting 
OpenWRT.

Bob,
        Did you check out the stuff at routerboard.com?  They've got equivalent
products along with a wider range and they've got enclosures and such
for them.
