Hi,

   New Router board.... VERY good idea....

   I AM willing to get envolved to help with whatever (BSE(EE),MSEE,
etc.).

   Features I need:

    VERY cheap basic unit available. 

    Good OEM package. 

    Full sources for whole design.
      OEM engineers available.
      Copies of current engineering package for PCBs, VHDL, Code, etc.
      Design available in form suitable for use with open source tools!!

    Provision for add on modules: Piggy back or plug-in feature modules.

    And the usual feature set you probably already have identified.

    1. GPIO -> SPI/Serial to peripheral(s) with or without their own
processor
               MMC/SD (of course)

               BIG DDR - Suggest 256MB min. 
                 DDR module plug-in?

    2. I TOO see NO NEED for large on PCB flash. Just boot flash with rest
of load on plug-in MMC card

    warm regards to all,
    Wiz (pen name)
