I confirm, I have been using the AWM002 for some time now. > > Did you catch the offer to make 10 custom RT5350 boards for $5,000? > That really interesting.

What makes me wonder is this sentence: "After 5 times modifications reaches the low operating temperature.", and a link to: <http://www.asiarf.com/blog/mtk-ralink-wifi-ap-router-module-with-low-temperature/> It looks like they found a way to reduce the RT5350F dissipation, but it doesn't tell if it is a hardware or software modification. As for a comparison between VoCore and AsiaRF, I would say that the VoCore is done by a hobbyist as Open Hardware through experimentation, while the AsiaRF is a professional design. And I can tell you that the AsiaRF board is fully working! But the VoCore success might have triggered the AsiaRF Indiegogo campaign;) They are still making money from these RT5350F-based cheap boards, as you can get them in small quantities for ~7.50USD. > >> >> Regards, >> -w- >> >> >> On Fri, 30 May 2014, [email protected] wrote: >> >>> What do you think about these new Linux systems in a cubic inch?
