Love the board, but not going to buy! It is just too costly.

In India, a IOIO OTG board costs roughly $58
While, a Freeduino + HT-06 costs $30. That is almost half the price.

Can't I use a Freeduino with HTC-06 bluetooth instead of a IOIO board with 
my Android applications? I would like to know the downsides please.

Thanks,

Mohan
