I'm developing an embedded networked webcam that can stream in multipart
JPEG and MP4, like AXIS products but on budget.
Could someone recommend small board which is available in retail?
Preferably x86 with mini-PCI or with built-in video capture and is able
to work w/o ATX power supply. Like CM-iGLX

I know about:
1. PC-Engines's wrap2 and Soekris, but they are rather underpowered;
2. Mini-ITX - even with PCI riser card space savings cannot justify the
price compared to small ATX board;
3. Nano-ITX - high price, 1GHz VIA products are too massive because of
heatsink, need ITX or ATX power supply, too much useless hardware.
I already did the webcams from ATX boards. Old used PentiumII boards are
perfectly fine - they are cheap and cool. P4 Celerons generate too much
heat even at low load. When assembled the server is the size of laptop,
but 2-3 times thicker. Would be nice to go more compact form-factor.
